The Ecotur - Cooking and Tourism School project was born in response to the new demands of the labor market that were not being covered due to an insufficient training offer.

Hotel & School

The growth of the tourism and gastronomic sector led us to promote our school by offering Middle and Higher Degree training cycles in cooking and tourism, Master’s degrees for kitchen management or accommodation management, European Diplomas or courses of all kinds for employees and unemployed in the sector .

Since 2014, our objective is to expand the academic possibilities of the hotel-gastronomic branch in the Valencian Community, and we are proud to be able to say that 6 years later about a thousand students have left our school to join the world of work.

gastronomy

Gastronomic training area

The FP training cycles in cooking, masters in kitchen management or restaurant management and diplomas that we offer will allow students to enter the world of professional cooking and pastry, expanding their culinary knowledge and improving their techniques. With the aim of showing the most recent kitchen management techniques (preparation of raw materials, plating and decoration, setting up buffets, cooking methods, menu design and menu making, etc.).

Students will receive basic cooking skills and will be introduced to the world of cutting-edge culinary techniques. From the first day, the assimilation of the concepts explained in the preparation classes is reinforced with the daily practices in the kitchen.

The cooking practices allow the student to work in depth on the main cuts, the cooking methods and the preparation of the mother sauces. Progressively, the development of techniques is complicated and the training is complemented with other concepts necessary for the conservation and knowledge of the products, as well as for the understanding of current cuisine and its history.

Thus, throughout the academic year, the student will not only learn the theory, but will also learn the knowledge and techniques to function in a professional kitchen.

With the study of the data of the exponential growth of tourism:

760 million tourists made international trips in 2012.
These tourists spent around 514.4 billion euros in 2012.
Tourism constitutes 8 percent of total world exports.
Tourism employs more people than any industrial sector.
A prudent estimate of tourism investment in infrastructure (accommodation, transport and restaurants) is approximately € 3 trillion.

We are encouraged to also offer training aimed at the tourism sector that offers students the possibility of developing in it. Thus, with the offer of training cycles fp and masters in tourist accommodation management , among others, we will make available to many students the possibility of being able to train in studies of tremendous projection labor.
