CETT Through Experiences

We believe in experiences that connect us to the world and experiences that have the power to transform people.

Cultures, landscapes and flavors open the door to emotions, sensations and personal growth.

That is why we understand aesthetic experiences as an engine for learning, innovation and progress.

CETT has been committed to the growth of the sector and society for 55 years, transforming students and conceiving tourism, hospitality and gastronomy as experiences that excite and connect people. 

Mission

To be the university center of reference in tourism, hospitality and gastronomy in Europe.

Vision

To build, day by day, a community of learning and exploration where responsible talent that will shape the future of the tourism, hospitality and gastronomy industry is forged. 

Our values

Our vocation for service drives us to anticipate, to assume the responsibility of responding to people's needs, to observe and act in an agile manner in order to be half a step ahead.

Integrity makes us develop authentic and honest relationships with people and the ecosystem, being aware that challenges can only be overcome with effort, perseverance, generosity and collaboration.

We build relationships based on trust and teamwork, which multiply our possibilities of a path towards our purpose.

Training is the instrument through which we materialize our commitment to people, country and society, because we have much to contribute to the transformation of the sector, building a community of entrepreneurial, innovative and responsible talent.

Our initiative drives us to explore perimeters, without geographical or knowledge limitations, developing the CETT Campus, open to the world, starting from our essence towards environments of opportunities.

We deploy our learning capacity, making all the people who make up the CETT community take on the challenge of growing by growing and generating a positive impact on companies, institutions in the sector and even society. 

What makes us different?

We have our own way of doing things, based on our commitment to sustainability and responsible talent development, close collaboration with industry and institutions, and our pioneering campus model. 

  • A learning community with purpose

    The confluence between the student body, a teaching team and professionals with experience and academic rigor, and the Alumni collective aims to generate a positive and transformative impact on the sector and society.

    We collaborate closely with the sector, with more than 1,000 agreements with companies.

  • Knowledgeable referents in tourism, hospitality and gastronomy.

    We generate specialized knowledge and academic research, embracing the university character of CETT, based on the link between the center and the University of Barcelona for more than 25 years.

  • A unique campus in Barcelona

    The CETT Campus is made up of the CETT-UB training center, the Alimara University Hotel -a pioneering university hotel model in Europe- and the Àgora BCN university residence, embracing innovation and growth under the concept of Learning Through Experiences.

    We maintain close ties with the industry, people and companies to better understand their needs, address emerging challenges and thus contribute to the sustainable and innovative transformation of tourism, hospitality and gastronomy. 

  • Openness to the world

    With more than 1,200 international students per year, we aspire to be a global benchmark, attracting talent from around the world and enriching our educational environment to train professionals capable of excelling in a competitive and diverse environment.

    More than 70 agreements with universities and schools around the world reinforce our international commitment. 

  • Forward-looking students

    We provide comprehensive training and the development of attitudinal competencies to our students, preparing them to face professional challenges with confidence and contribute positively to the growth of the tourism, hotel and gastronomic sector, as well as to the improvement of society in general.

  • A sustainable approach

    Sustainability is an essential pillar for the CETT Campus. We focus on efficiency as a means to improve our competitiveness and ensure our continuity. This allows us to reinvest our results in the constant improvement of training and for the benefit of the community.

    With this responsible vision we aspire to be a reference in the world of training in tourism, hospitality and gastronomy, contributing to a more conscious and respectful future with the environment and the next generations.
