Ferrières, the French Excellence School
Driven by essential values like audacity and innovation, work, humility and openness, Ferrières, the “Grande Ecole” for Hotel, Gastronomy and Luxury, is evolving towards higher education. It transmits to its students the know-how, the interpersonal skills and the luxury codes from yesterday to today. It brings them the keys to accomplish tomorrow's success.
89, the Digital School
In barely 20 years, our lifestyles have radically changed. The labour market is also subject to profound changes.
