Start your career in hospitality with the Hospitality Team Member Apprenticeship. A hospitality team member can work in a range of establishments, for example bars, restaurants, cafés, conference centres, banqueting venues, hotels or contract caterers. The role of a hospitality team member is very varied and although hospitality team members tend to specialise in an area, they have to be adaptable and ready to support team members across the business, for example during busy periods.
The apprenticeship explores the essentials of working in the industry and developing your customer service and team member skills. The core units are focused on the business, people and customers. In addition, students choose to select one specialist area in hospitality, options include:

Please note if your English and maths prior qualifications are comparable to a GCSE grade 3 you will be required to attempt functional skills at level 2.
