The IHAB award is a prize for the one graduate that impressed the most during the final assessment. In this oral exam, students reflect on the development that they have gone through during their years at the hotel school. They present themselves as ‘young professionals’ and show that they are ready for their ‘next step in hospitality’. Apart from everlasting fame, the winner receives an amount of 1,000 Euros (sponsored by Bidfood). Furthermore he or she may accompany an IHAB member for one day during his or her duties.
