New Educational Partnership

A new and meaningful strategic partnership is taking place in the fields of education and tourism, paving the way for new professionals. SBIE, the No.1 Institute of Higher Vocational Training, is collaborating with the Mitsis Group — the distinguished and innovative leader in the Greek hospitality industry for 49 years — aiming to connect knowledge with practice and education with the job market.

From Theory to Practice

The core of this partnership is the creation of a strong bridge between theoretical training and professional placement. SBIE students from its campuses in Athens, Patras, and Kalamata have the opportunity to acquire specialized knowledge in the following fields:

• Culinary Arts & Gastronomy
• Spa – Wellness – Aesthetics
• Tourism Professions
• Pedagogy

Students can now apply their knowledge in real working conditions through internships and potential future employment in the 24 luxury hotels of the Mitsis Group across 9 iconic destinations in Greece – Athens, Piraeus, Kamena Vourla, Crete, Rhodes, Kos, Corfu, Halkidiki, and Santorini. This collaboration creates a bridge that offers students real career opportunities and provides Mitsis Group with highly skilled professionals ready to meet the high service standards that define the Group’s philosophy.

Contest for High School Graduates

This collaboration begins dynamically with a series of initiatives that strengthen the connection between youth, education, and tourism. As part of this effort, a contest is being held on SBIE’s social media channels until August 20, 2025, aimed at high school graduates. It serves as an introduction to the hospitality industry through the experience of Mitsis Hotels.
