hotel management school NHL Stenden
Welcome
Dear future Hoteliers,
We are more than excited to invite you to join this year’s SSW/Onboarding Week! We have developed a very exciting programme to ensure a great head-start for you at Hotel Management School NHL Stenden Leeuwarden.
The first part of this Onboarding period will be composed of dinners, parties, an introduction of Leeuwarden, and more activities to meet your fellow classmates. The second part is a full introduction to the schools’ curriculum through working on a real design challenge from an external industry partner, having workshops and masterclasses guided by student association and industry professionals.
And what’s best, you are going to do these fun things together with your “Homegroup”, which consists of your classmates for your first two years of the study at the HMS.
Furthermore, you and your group mates will have two actual HMS students that will be your hosts. They will guide you through your Onboarding period and help you during your first months at HMS NHL-Stenden.
We strongly recommend you to attend the upcoming Onboarding Weeks, as important information will be shared with you, and connecting with your future classmates will be very beneficial!
The dates for the Onboarding Weeks are from the 24th of August until the 2nd of September.
If you have any questions, please contact hostprogramme@nhlstenden.com
NOTE: Associate Degree, IBC and Master students are following a different programme and therefore do not need to register via this registration form. The times and activities displayed in the program are subject to change.
