UCB held an induction day for professionals in the hospitality sector working towards a foundation degree in Professional Hospitality Operational Management Level 4.
This is part of a collaborative programme between QHotels and the university that is aimed at people working in the hospitality industry wanting to ascend the management ladder. The students work in hotels from all around the UK – from Ashford, Kent to Cumbernauld just outside of Glasgow.
UCB helps to develop the modules of study, manage assessments and provides up-to-date information on current issues in the day-to-day management of hotels and leisure facilities and the important attributes needed to develop the next generation of managers.
The knowledge that these students will gain is highly-practical and the students can begin applying it to their professional roles immediately, such as modules on finance, development planning and how to maximise profitability.
