Hospitality Operations Traineeship QQI Level 5 Major Award

Description

Programme Aim
The aim of this programme is to enable the learner to develop knowledge, skills and competence in the art of hospitality, and to work independently under supervision in a range of key areas in a hospitality enterprise.

This full time programme is designed to provide learners with the necessary skills and techniques including Accommodation Techniques, Reception Skills, Food & Beverage Service and Restaurant Skills.

This Traineeship is 42 weeks in duration, beginning in an education and training environment, with work placement following either during or after the in-class learning. The traineeship includes a substantial period of time (generally 30% minimum/10 weeks) in the workplace, e.g., 3 days per week in work placement/2 days per week in class OR block work placement. Development of a traineeship programme is triggered by identification of a skills need within a particular industry. The work-based component is supported by an in-company mentor/supervisor who oversees completion of each trainee’s skills checklist on-the-job.
