The High School of the City of Skopje "Lazar Tanev" is the largest secondary vocational school in our country that educates, trains and produces personnel for the needs of the catering and tourism industry of the Republic of North Macedonia.
Annually, around 500 full-time students are educated here for: waiter, chef, confectioner and baker with a three-year education and hotel and tourism technician with a four-year education. The school also educates a larger number of students with part-time education for all educational profiles related to the catering and tourism industry, as well as with specialist education: chef-specialist, confectioner-specialist and waiter-specialist.
Considering the location, communication links and natural beauties that the Republic of North Macedonia abounds with, it is increasingly becoming a country that can welcome a large number of domestic and foreign tourists. The tourism industry is of paramount importance for our country and is one of the main priorities for its social, economic and cultural development.
The first contact of foreign visitors with the country is through professionals from the hospitality and tourism industry, who provide tourists with initial information about the country's distinctive features, cultural and historical monuments, natural beauties, national cuisine, and its hospitality.
This creates the need for well-trained professionals with a broad general education and modern practical training. The entire educational activity at the school is aimed at producing staff who will fully meet the requirements of modern hospitality and tourism, providing the most favorable values of expertise and adaptability to the market.
