  • 21St Annual Restaurant Industry Conference
    21ST ANNUAL RESTAURANT INDUSTRY CONFERENCE WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 2017, COVEL COMMONS, UCLA WELCOME UCLA Extension is proud to present the 22nd Annual Restaurant Industry Conference, with this year’s focus on Dining Disrupted! The “digital tsunami” is powerful and unrelenting, posing life-changing challenges, opportunities, and seeming to require immediate responsiveness. It’s no secret that many established restaurants and suppliers are not only facing economic volatility but are continuously challenged by more informed and demanding diners. This year we honor Robert Brozin, who built Nando’s Roger Torneden from one restaurant to a truly world-wide brand serving millions of diners. As chief executive of Nando’s until Associate Dean, Executive Director of UCLA Online 2010, he used sheer creativity (and Portuguese- Director, Department of Business, Management style peri-peri sauce) to take a little restaurant from & Legal Programs, UCLA Extension Rosettenville, South Africa, to the world. Today, Nando’s is loved in America, Australia, the United Kingdom, and 20 other countries as diverse as Fiji and Bangladesh. UCLA Extension serves approximately 40,000 students annually through Westwood, Downtown Los Angeles, and Woodland Hills campuses, plus a substantial selection of online courses. Our students typically already have degrees and years of experience but are seeking enhanced or new careers. Our instructors are “best in class” practitioners approved by UCLA’s campus schools for academic and teaching qualifications. In the Business, Management & Legal Programs Department, we focus on certificate programs and courses across industries (e.g., web analytics and social media marketing, small business management, credit analysis, finance, accounting, etc.) and on specific industries (hospitality, financial services, consulting, security, real estate, etc.).

  • UNESCO World Heritage Properties in Switzerland February 2021
    UNESCO World Heritage properties in Switzerland February 2021 www.whes.ch Welcome Dear journalists, Thank you for taking an interest in Switzerland’s World Heritage proper- ties. Indeed, these natural and cultural assets have plenty to offer: en- chanting cityscapes, unique landscapes, historic legacies and hidden treasures. Much of this heritage was left to us by our ancestors, but nature has also played its part in making the World Heritage properties an endless source of amazement. There are three natural and nine cultur- al assets in total – and as unique as each site is, they all have one thing in common: the universal value that we share with the global community. “World Heritage Experience Switzerland” (WHES) is the umbrella organisation for the tourist network of UNESCO World Heritage properties in Switzerland. We see ourselves as a driving force for a more profound and responsible form of tourism based on respect and appreciation. In this respect we aim to create added value: for visitors in the form of sustainable experiences and for the World Heritage properties in terms of their preservation and appreciation by future generations. The enclosed documentation will offer you the broadest possible insight into the diversity and unique- ness of UNESCO World Heritage. If you have any questions or suggestions, you can contact us at any time. Best regards Kaspar Schürch Managing Director WHES [email protected] Tel. +41 (0)31 544 31 17 More information: www.whes.ch Page 2 Table of contents World Heritage in Switzerland 4 Overview
