Testimonials

Everything I learned at Le Cordon Bleu has amazing value in the workplace. Without Le Cordon Bleu and my commitment to lifelong learning this job (as Brand Experience Manager at Pernod Ricard Winemakers) would never have happened.

Eileen Low - Master of International Hospitality Management
Le Cordon Bleu had the reputation and history I was looking for in a university, so it was an obvious choice.

Yurav Pawar - Master of International Hospitality Management
The Master’s degree was an opportunity to refine and polish my skills, and yes, you do learn while working, but there is a certain expertise and career advantage that only postgraduate study can give you.

Anamika Setulari - Master of International Hospitality Management
The Le Cordon Bleu degree is so good because the last six months are on-the-job in industry placement. I get to do a real work placement which enhances my employment prospects.
