One CEO for all of Switzerland: SAWI Switzerland with new management structure
Yannick Chevailler, who has served as director of SAWI Western Switzerland since 2013, will also assume overall management of SAWI across all language divisions as CEO of Switzerland.
Due to his many years of successful work in the Swiss continuing education sector, he represents significant added value for the cross-language development and future design of SAWI's offerings.
With the appointment of the CEO Switzerland, SAWI will once again have a Swiss-wide management team. This will further expand the cross-language networking of the two competence centers and make optimum use of synergies and knowledge between the two locations. Thanks to the team's networked way of working, innovations can be developed across Switzerland and with a view to the future.
In addition to the traditional courses leading to a professional certificate or diploma in marketing, communication and sales, SAWI is increasingly focusing on the growing digital sector. The new SAWI courses are the answer to the rapidly changing digitalization in the marketing sector. They also offer students the opportunity to complete courses in German-speaking and French-speaking Switzerland and to exchange ideas with fellow students and lecturers from the other location.
Yannick Chevailler on his new responsibility: "As the new CEO, I would like to transfer the great long-term successes of SAWI Western Switzerland and Polycom to the whole of Switzerland. Combining the management and the cross-language offering will create synergies and added value from which our students can only benefit."
The SAWI association runs the school for training and further education under the name "Academy for Marketing and Communication".
