Since opening its doors in 2007, the School of Hotel Management & Tourism Nepal (SHMTN) has established itself as a trusted name in hospitality and tourism education. Built with a vision to bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world industry demands, SHMTN operates with full approval from the Government of Nepal and is affiliated with the Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training (CTEVT).
Over the past 17+ years, SHMTN has trained more than 10,000 students, empowering them with practical, job-ready skills for careers in both domestic and international hospitality sectors. Many of our alumni now work in esteemed hotel chains and tourism organizations around the globe.
A key highlight of SHMTN’s journey is our ongoing collaboration with Beijing Pigeons Xiang International Company (BPXI) in China, through which over 500 students have been successfully placed in international internships and study programs. We continue to place students in countries including Thailand, China, UAE, Qatar, Malaysia, Mauritius, and Dubai, offering unmatched global exposure.
Our curriculum includes a diverse range of short-term, vocational, and diploma courses in Hotel Management and Culinary Arts, designed to match evolving industry standards. In addition to our in-house programs, SHMTN also supports students from 33+ partner institutions by delivering skill enhancement training and career placement services.
From a modest beginning in Kalimati, Kathmandu, SHMTN has grown into a center of excellence that prepares students not only to succeed—but to lead—in the global hospitality industry.
