Who we are
savignac, expert in hospitality management
Savignac is a management school committed to training the future leaders of the hospitality industry, i.e. all service professions (hospitality, hotels, catering) whose common denominator is to please others, and to take pleasure in doing so.
Savignac, a professional school
Savignac is resolutely positioned as a business school with a direct professional focus, where experience plays a major role. While all our programs are designed to impart the fundamentals of theory, they also focus on the operational aspects of service professions.
To achieve this, we give priority to working professionals who are experts in the sector, in touch with real-life situations and current issues. A large proportion of our courses are given in the form of group workshops or workgroups . They are supplemented by periods of immersion in the workplace, every year.
A management-oriented school
What sets Savignac apart from other hotel schools is the predominance of management training. While our graduates are all trained in the operational side of the business, they are also ready to take on support functions.
Right from the first year, students are introduced to management and all the techniques involved in organizing, directing and controlling the various activities of a hotel business.
A school of life
A good hospitality professional wants to take care of others, guarantee an impeccable customer experience, and generate positive emotions in the customer.
Because we are committed to the art of management and service, we pay particular attention to the teaching environment and student life.
By favoring a natural environment and a location far from urban overcrowding, we create the ideal conditions for living and growing together. In our view, these are the essential pillars of hospitality.
At Savignac, there's no choice but to experience mutual aid, solidarity and team spirit. A human experience unrivalled in the world of hotel schools.
This approach has been recognized by the Best School Experience - Happiness barometer 2023 ranking, which places Savignac in 1st position among hotel schools where students are happy and enjoy the best student experience. This is a fine endorsement of our unique philosophy, which combines academic rigor with a concern for individual development.
A school that takes responsibility
As a school with a strong commitment to putting people at the heart of performance, Savignac is committed to :
Remain a school on a human scale: the number of students is limited to 450.
Capitalize on environments conducive to personal development and collective experience.
Balancing the learning of know-how and interpersonal skills, with an emphasis on personal development and altruism.
Build progressive learning programs to match the pace at which individuals acquire their skills.
Prioritize the selection of our students on motivation, personality and projection in a hospitality relationship, rather than on academic record alone. That's why we choose not to enter the Parcoursup programs, and refuse to base everything on an algorithm.
