A warm welcome to our newest students from Volyn Professional College NUFT in Lutsk, Ukraine!

Last week, these future hospitality professionals arrived at HOTEL SCHOOL Hotel Management College to begin their long-term student mobility for traineeships. And what a fantastic time to be here! Summer in Riga means the absolute best weather of the year and the thrilling peak of our tourist season. There is truly no better—or luckier—time to dive into the local hospitality scene!

We always stress that for future hospitality professionals practical experience is everything. Stepping out of the classroom and into a bustling, real-world environment is where true expertise is built.

For the next two months, they will be gaining invaluable hands-on experience at top-tier venues:

• AC Hotel Riga
• Tallink Hotel Riga
• Neiburgs Hotel & Restaurant

Mastering the industry during its busiest season in an international environment is a massive step in their professional development. We are so proud to host them and can’t wait to see them thrive!

Incoming student mobilities for traineeships are implemented in the framework of the project No. 2025-1-LV01-KA131-HED-000312975, which is co-financed by the European Union.
