Each year the Vatel School Directors together with members of Vatel Corporate hold a convention at one of the 25 campuses of the 1st Worldwide Business School Group in Hospitality & Tourism Management, in order to discuss focal areas for upcoming years.

Geronio Ulayao, the Vatel Manila School Director opened the doors of the newly renovated Vatel Manila campus to welcome the School directors and members of Vatel Corporate from April 26 to 30, 2014 for the 8th International Convention. These conventions offer an opportunity to debate current events with respect to education and to discuss the latest trends in the hotel and tourism markets. Feedback, new ideas and educational concepts that are likely to increase the quality of teaching in an international context lay at the heart of debates.

At the end of the 7th international Convention in 2013 in Martigny in Switzerland, the Group had decided to recruit an Academic Director. With experience in both education and international affairs, Benjamin Garcia began his functions in December 2013 and was presented to the directors during this convention.

With a Master's Degree in Corporate Law, Benjamin Garcia was previously Project Officer in higher education for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and led the network of French cooperation services to organize entrance exams for the Ministry of Higher Education and Research. In 2010, he joined the IDRAC Group, as Head of Studies, where his duties included educational monitoring, teaching, management, and in the framework of International Development, coordination of international exchange programs.

In 2015, Vatel School Directors and Corporate Vatel members will gather at Tel Aviv in Israel.
