Tredu offers Hotel Receptionist studies in English. Receptionists are the heart of a hotel: They welcome guests, maintain security and prioritise well-being of customers. Excellent communication skills and ability to work with all kinds of people from different cultural backrounds are crucial in this work. We combine the studies with real life practise and we also do different projects in the actual working life.
This hotel training program is for you to develop your skills into an international expert with strong customer service attitude, good language skills and ability to work in different cultural environments.
