Two SEG Staff Members Honoured for Innovation in Education as Apple Distinguished Educators

As authors, advisors, ambassadors and advocates for change, this handpicked community of education innovators is set to use their fresh new ideas to transform the educational experience for the next generation. Lisa Peel, Swiss Education Group Head of Learning Resources Services and Christoph Meylan, SHMS Programme Leader & Lecturer have been chosen among this influential group of educators based on the innovative work they have brought to the Swiss Education Group.

Only hospitality school represented
Out of the 10,000 applicants only 650 were selected with 16 educators representing Switzerland. Although a wide array of educational facilities were chosen, Swiss Education Group was the only hospitality education institute amongst the group that convened in Amsterdam for 1 week in July.

"Congratulations to Lisa and Chris! Swiss Education Group is a World Leader in Hospitality Management Education and we are committed to ensuring our faculty receives the highest quality training & development. We are the 1st Hospitality School in the World to launch 1 - 1 iPad technology in the classroom and having our faculty participating in the Apple Distinguished Educators programme brings another advantage for our students as they join our Educational Revolution." Ronan Fitzgerald, Chief Operations Officer, Swiss Education Group

Recognized among this elite group of educators, Lisa and Chris are set on an incredible path over the next year and beyond. We will be following along closely to learn where their journey takes them.
