Summer Intensive Course International Etiquette & Protocol By Institut Villa Pierrefeu 6 week course June 16 - July 26, 2019 3 week courses begin June 16 or July 7, 2019 Students from age 18 and above The leading Swiss Finishing School, since 1954 More than 60 years experience teaching International Etiquette and Protocol EFTA00521991 IVP: Where polish is power Institut Villa Pierrefeu Institut Villa Pierrefeu is the world's best-known Finishing school, a leader in teaching international etiquette and protocol since 1954. Attracting students from all over the globe, we offer a truly multicultural environment, ideally set in Switzerland, a country combining three major cultural influences. As etiquette continuously evolves over time, so do the teaching methods and knowledge of our expert staff. That's why our curriculum is relentlessly refined and updated to ensure accuracy and relevancy for our students. While others teach knowledge, we turn good manners into a way of life for our graduates. Over the past six decades we have taught international etiquette and protocol to women from many different backgrounds as well as business leaders, diplomats and members of ruling families. Three generations As a family-owned business spanning three generations, the school's unique history, rich heritage and purpose-built campus offer an exclusive and authentic educational experience that no other institution can replicate. The school was founded by my grandmother, Madame Dorette Faillettaz, who had a passion for education, which led her to create a unique curriculum inspired by traditional Swiss values combined with modern general culture. Her mission was simple: to empower women by giving them the skills and tools to successfully juggle their family, career, social and personal lives. In 1972. my mother Madame Viviane Neri succeeded my grandmother as Principal of the school. As international travel became more accessible, she further developed the programs in intercultural communication, international business etiquette and diplomatic protocol - courses she still oversees and teaches today. In addition, she also continues to develop the many IVP course books that serve as a reference for our students long after they graduate. In 2004, I joined IVP from the private banking world. There. I witnessed firsthand how essential etiquette and intercultural communication skills are for advancing in the business world. We now offer women a unique curriculum that aims to transform them into becoming more confident and empowered in their personal and professional lives. The 6-week intensive summer course consists of 180- 230 hours of class and, for those working toward a Diploma in International Etiquette and Protocol, some 30 tests and three practical exams. The limited number of students makes for small class sizes, providing a high quality of teaching and personal attention. I look forward to having you come and experience this life-enriching program that will empower you, as my grandmother had originally intended. Yours sincerely, Philippe NERI, Director 2 D 2019.06-CS V 1.0 EN VN-pn Rev: 2018-09-24 EFTA00521992 What we offer Courses taught in English. The full curriculum is covered in 6 weeks. A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE Our curriculum in the field of International Etiquette and Protocol is constantly updated and truly multicultural. Over these many years we have accumulated a wealth of equipment. documentation and materials second to none. Some classes are interactive with brainstorming, coaching. role-playing and question and answer sessions. Practice with correction results in more effective learning and progress. Specially designed and extensively researched IVP books complement the subject matter covered in class and serve as a useful reference throughout the student's life. The knowledge and vast experience that our experts have acquired in these fields also help to clarify many points and explain the evolution of international etiquette over the years and even decades. WHAT YOU WILL GAIN Women who want to feel at ease in international social and/or business environments and wish to have an extensive practical knowledge of the subjects offered. This course is essential for anyone dealing with officials, business people, clients or guests from different cultures at a high level. It will help you to feel comfortable in many situations and allow you to concentrate on your objectives rather than worrying about making costly cultural mistakes or etiquette "faux pas".

The students benefit from the school's calm and secure location as well as breathtaking views. The nearby picturesque town of Montreux, renowned for its international festivals and its micro- climate. provides much entertainment during leisure time. In July, Montreux hosts a world famous Jan Festival. In 2019 it will also host the -Fête des Vignerons" which is recognized by UNESCO on its list of intangible cultural heritage. The -Fête des Vignerons" brings generations together, connecting people from the villages. the countryside and the vineyards. locals and foreigners. and offers each visitor the opportunity to go beyond themselves, to transcend and collectively participate in a show unique in the world. There are many sports facilities in the area as well as cultural events to attend. With Paris and Milan only three hours away by train and many other famous European cities within an hour by plane. students can take short weekend trips. INTERNET ACCESS Internet access is available on your own notebook/tablet/phone with Wi-Fi. 8 RELIGION The Catholic church is situated just below the school. a Protestant church five minutes from the school and a Russian Orthodox church in Vevey. The synagogue is in Lausanne (30 minutes by train). Muslim students may be excused from classes and activities for prayers. ON CAMPUS ACCOMMODATION (LODGING) "Resident" students: IVP offers pleasant boarding school style accommodation on campus. in double or triple rooms with their own bathroom. For all on campus single rooms. the bathroom is shared with one or more people. Students who prefer a single room with their own bathroom are lodged at the Hotel Victoria. which is right next to the school. The prices for the various types of rooms are on the application form. Students are grouped by age and room allocation is made in order of enrolment. Students are expected to keep their rooms and bathrooms tidy at all times. They are cleaned daily and sheets (provided by the school) changed once a week. Towels and toiletries (Kleenex. soap. shampoo. etc) are not provided, therefore students are requested to bring their own. Self-laundering facilities are available for the Resident students, otherwise there are laundry and dry cleaning services in town. As this course is meant for adults, students are free to come and go as they wish, outside of class hours and practical duty times (i.e. hostessing or table service at lunch). There are no curfews. The sleep of the other students must however be respected and no noisy activities allowed from 10 pm to 7 am the following morning. Should this not be observed. the student will be asked to move to a hotel. Visitors (including family members) are not allowed to visit or stay in the school buildings. They are of course welcome to visit on the arrival and departure days. Students should arrive on Sunday between 10am and 3pm and leave their room at noon on the Friday that their course ends.
