Half of the programme is delivered on placement in industry and the ‘taught’ modules are delivered online.
At level 4, students split their studies equally between more theoretical, taught modules (60 credits delivered online) and restaurant-based practical placement modules (60 credits) within an introductory framework. Students study on a three term basis, 40 credits per term (or 20 credits for PT students).
There is strong engagement with key employers and focused participation in skills networks and initiatives. The course will continuously evolve in accordance with feedback from industry; the University has strong working relationships with leaders in the restaurant industry, including The Seren Collection, The Cygnus Group, The Secret Hospitality Group and Jessica Rice Events, and with the support of leading chefs and sommeliers across the UK.
Year One – Level 4 (CertHE)
Employability is at the heart of the programme.
As well as restaurant and gastronomy specific skills, the programme has modules that embed transferable skills of innovation, dealing with unexpected events, resilience, personal initiative and responsibility, problem solving and creativity, reflective practice and the development of an enterprising mind-set.
The practice-led teaching will be supplemented with guest lectures and frequent field trips to restaurants, food producers, specific food markets, and artisan wine and beverage producers.
Learners will also have the opportunity to receive bespoke careers guidance as well as skills development sessions to improve confidence, such as LinkedIn training to improve their online presence and mock interviews.
