HNC Hospitality Management

The level 4 higher national certificate in Hospitality Management offers students a broad introduction to the subject area via a mandatory core of learning, while allowing for the acquisition of skills and experience through the selection of optional units across a range of occupational sectors at level 4. This effectively builds underpinning core skills while preparing the student for subject specialisation at Level 5. Students will gain a wide range of sector knowledge tied to practical skills gained in research, self-study, directed study and workplace scenarios.

At Level 4 students develop a broad knowledge and awareness of key aspects of hospitality through five core units, which include one unit assessed by a Pearson set assignment.

The units are:

• The Contemporary Hospitality Industry
• Managing the Customer Experience
• Professional Identity and Practice
• The Hospitality Business Toolkit
• Leadership and Management for Service Industries (Pearson-set unit).

This course is taught at our award winning 2 AA Rosette in house restaurant - The Classroom.
