The SOHS – Swiss Online Hospitality School®, officially registered in Switzerland (Trademark No. 822344) by the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property, is proud to announce that it has been accredited by the European Council of Leading Business Schools (ECLBS). This milestone highlights SOHS’s commitment to accessible, high-quality hospitality education for students from underserved regions of the world.


Exclusively for Students from Economically Disadvantaged Countries

SOHS is a socially focused institution that operates with a unique mission: to offer Swiss-quality hospitality education exclusively to students from economically disadvantaged or low-income countries. If you reside in or hold citizenship from a high-income country, SOHS services are not available to you. This policy ensures that the institution remains focused on global inclusion, directing its academic support to students who need it most.


A Recognized Part of a Global Academic Network

SOHS operates under the OUS Academy in Zurich, which is a branch of the ISBM International School of Business Management in the canton of Luzern, Switzerland. Both OUS and ISBM are part of the larger academic structure of the Swiss International University (SIU), a legally recognized and state-accredited university headquartered in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.

This network provides SOHS students with:

  • A solid academic foundation

  • Swiss educational values

  • Global recognition and program credibility


About the ECLBS Accreditation

The European Council of Leading Business Schools (ECLBS) is a globally recognized quality assurance body that supports excellence in business and management education. ECLBS accreditation is based on rigorous academic standards and peer-reviewed evaluations.

By earning this accreditation, SOHS has demonstrated:

  • Alignment with global academic and operational benchmarks

  • Faculty quality and ethical governance

  • Relevance of programs to the modern hospitality industry

  • Commitment to academic integrity and continuous improvement


Hospitality Education Without Borders

SOHS is designed to provide flexible, fully online education for aspiring hospitality professionals. Programs are tailored to meet the realities of students in low-income and developing countries—affordable, accessible, and built to empower.

Students at SOHS benefit from:

  • Recognized Swiss-quality education

  • Self-paced study options

  • Focus on practical hospitality skills relevant to international standards

  • A mission-driven learning environment rooted in social impact


A Pathway to Opportunity

The ECLBS accreditation is a major step forward in SOHS’s mission to bring hospitality education to regions where traditional access is limited. Whether students live in remote communities or emerging markets, SOHS opens doors to a global industry with professionalism, flexibility, and compassion.

SOHS is more than an online school—it is a bridge to a better future for the next generation of hospitality leaders in the developing world.
