At MIS, students will study the International Baccalaureate’s (IB) Career-related Programme (CP), which is designed for students between the ages of 16-19, and draws on the academic rigour of the core IB model in combination with career-related study and real-world experience. The programme comes in three parts: courses from the IB’s Diploma Programme (DP), the CP core and careerrelated study. Students are required to take a minimum of two courses from the IB’s traditional DP. The idea behind this is to provide a theoretical basis to the CP, giving a solid grounding in the IB’s core academic subjects including sciences, mathematics and the arts, among others. The Career-Related Programme To complement and provide context to students’ DP courses, the CP core emphasises experiential learning to develop their personal and professional skills. It aims to equip students with the necessary interpersonal and problemsolving abilities which are not only desirable in the workplace, but also ensure their adaptability to an ever-evolving world.
This course for students who are passionate about working in the hospitality sector and want to remain in Switzerland to complete an accelerated Bachelor programme at one of the four world-class hospitality schools within the Swiss Education Group.
