Programme overview

Certified Hospitality Programme – eLearning Bundle

The Certified Hospitality Programme is a three-level eLearning pathway from Restaurant & Hospitality Skillnet, designed to build skills progressively from entry level through to management. Delivered fully online, learners can complete modules at their own pace, making it easy to fit training around service and rosters. Each level builds on the last, giving member businesses a clear, structured route for developing and retaining their people.

Level 1 – Entry Level
For new starters and front-line staff. Learners gain the essential foundations of working in hospitality, from core service principles, teamwork and guest care to professional appearance and workplace behaviour. Level 1 also covers Food Hygiene Level 1, Allergen Awareness and Customer Service, ensuring staff are safe, compliant and guest-ready from day one.

Level 2 – Supervisory Level
For experienced staff and those stepping into supervisory roles. Learners progress to Food Hygiene Level 2 and develop the skills needed to lead on the floor or in the kitchen, including understanding and using KPIs, practical problem-solving and emotional intelligence to manage themselves and support their team.

Level 3 – Management Level
For managers, head chefs and aspiring business leaders. Learners focus on the commercial side of the business, covering restaurant business plans, financial management and kitchen KPIs, alongside effective negotiation and conflict resolution to lead teams and manage suppliers with confidence.
