What does the day-to-day work of a head of hotel housekeeping with a federal certificate look like?
Area managers in hotel housekeeping work in social and healthcare institutions (e.g. hospitals), hotels, staff restaurants, care homes and training and conference centers. Here they are responsible for one or even several specialist areas, assume specialist and management responsibility and look after the well-being of their guests.
Hotel housekeeping managers are responsible for the organization of operations, cleaning, laundry (textile care, laundry supply) and catering. To this end, they provide the appropriate infrastructure (goods, equipment and services) and maintain it by means of logistical processes, among other things.
They also plan, coordinate, control, monitor, analyze and optimize internal work processes.
Hotel housekeeping managers ensure that work is carried out economically. They carry out budget planning, which they monitor and control on an ongoing basis. They also know the legal regulations (e.g. proper storage of goods, hygiene, occupational and operational safety, economical and ecological procurement and disposal, efficient use of energy and resources) and ensure compliance with them in the business, for example by drawing up concepts and taking appropriate measures.
Furthermore, housekeeping managers are an important point of contact for all stakeholder groups: Patients, residents, relatives, guests, clients, employees, apprentices, superiors, suppliers and authorities. They are aware of their needs and wishes and try to meet them. Even in difficult situations, they try to keep calm, work out suitable solutions and communicate appropriately.
Finally, they also train apprentices and are responsible for managing employees. This also includes promoting the skills and curiosity of employees with appropriate training and further education opportunities.

You should expect to pay between CHF 9,200 and CHF 10,400. You will receive double support in this regard. On the one hand, the federal government's subject funding, thanks to which you will receive around 50% back from the federal government upon application after the examination (regardless of the result), and on the other hand, the so-called education offensive through the L-GAV funding.

*Since 1.1.2018, preparatory courses for federal professional examinations (BP) and higher professional examinations (HFP) have been financially supported by the federal government.

In exceptional cases of hardship, the federal contributions are also paid out in advance.

Duration of study, teaching times, teaching model and learning effort
- Duration:The extra-occupational training to become a hotel housekeeping manager with a federal certificate is modular and includes a final examination. It lasts approximately three to four semesters. (Note: Depending on the provider, it is also offered as a block course).
- Lesson times:When these modules or block courses take place varies from school to school. This is because they can determine the time variants themselves and the timetables vary accordingly. Please contact the school of your choice directly and ask about the timetable.
- Teaching formats:Various teaching models are offered so that you have the opportunity to combine further education with your family, career and free time in the best possible way. As a rule, you can choose between face-to-face teaching or online formats such as online teaching, hybrid teaching or blended learning.
- Learning effort:Thanks to the extra-occupational concept of the further education course "Head of Hotel Housekeeping", you can apply and deepen the learning material in practice straight away. Nevertheless, you should allow sufficient time for preparation and follow-up of the lessons and for self-study - how much depends on your previous knowledge, working style and learning speed. We recommend that you allow at least 4 - 6 hours per week as a precaution.
Note: Depending on the situation, it is possible to attend a so-called "trial lesson". This gives you the opportunity to gain an insight into the lessons and the learning atmosphere at the school you visit. Important aspects on the way to successful graduation. It is best to contact the school of your choice directly for a trial lesson.
Question 6:
Can you find the time for lessons and self-study?
Great! Tip for self-study: Set yourself realistic daily or weekly targets and think about a small reward when you have achieved them. A good study strategy not only motivates you, but also protects you from chaotic, stressful study days and nights shortly before the exam.
If you do not have that much time to devote to training to become a hotel housekeeping manager, contact the providers and clarify whether you can possibly complete the training over more than four semesters.
Have you possibly already acquired the learning material for individual modules in other training or further education courses? If so, and if you receive a confirmation of equivalence, you no longer need to spend time studying the relevant subjects. If you are unsure whether your previous qualifications will be recognized for the professional examination (equivalence test), please contact theExamination secretariatand ask you for a binding clarification.
If you still don't have enough time, check whether you can create space for yourself elsewhere. Perhaps someone close to you can take on certain tasks for you for the duration of your training?

c) Case simulation in a leading function (practical, 40 minutes)
