In the end, Vice President Chen delivered a speech, in which he said that SBS was honored to have the opportunity to cooperate with EHL. EHL enjoys high reputation in the global hospitality management industry, and has a very high academic prestige worldwide. As a century-old school with a history of 127 years, EHL has become a benchmark in the industry. For SBS, cooperating with such an internationally advanced school not only helps us gear to international standards in terms of educational philosophy, curriculum setting, and teaching staff training, but also broadens students’ vision and enriches their practical experience. In view of the highly consistent values and educational philosophy, we believe that the cooperation between the two sides will lay a solid foundation for SBS to further gear to international educational standards, and play a positive role in strengthening our teaching staff reserve and management philosophy and improving our students’ academic performance and employability.
