Course Outline

If you are enrolling into our Advanced Diploma of Hospitality Management, it is expected that you will already have a sound understanding of the hospitality industry from completing our Diploma of Hospitality Management or from obtaining other equivalent qualifications. This course is all about refining your previously acquired knowledge and strengthening those skills you may find to be underdeveloped. What is special about our Advanced Diploma is that it will go in to depth about relevant topics such as managing finances and physical assets, developing effective marketing strategies, and the process involved in recruiting, selecting and inducting staff. At the end of this course, you should possess a strong set of employability skills that will make it hard for employers to overlook you.

*Please note all WAIFS courses are also offered via Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL).

This course will be delivered and assessed via classroom delivery, simulated environments, work-based training, portfolios, presentations, knowledge questions, and written assessments.
