About this course

Free Level 1 Hospitality Services Course. Work-based training at your workplace. You learn on the job, building practical skills in food and beverage service, food preparation, and hospitality services. The course runs over one to three years, depending on your starting point and the programme agreed through your initial assessment. Functional skills, health and safety, food hygiene, and equality and diversity are woven throughout.

Who this course is for

For young people aged 16-25 who have an interest in hospitality and an EHCP. Young people should not have a qualification of the same type, content and level. There are no formal entry requirements. However, a robust assessment process will take place to ensure the young person is on the correct programme of study.

What you will learn

  • You'll develop skills in food and beverage service
  • You'll practise food preparation in a real working environment
  • You'll learn how hospitality services operate day to day
  • You'll apply health and safety practices in your work setting
  • You'll build knowledge of food hygiene standards
  • You'll cover equality and diversity as part of your everyday work
  • You'll develop functional skills in English and maths alongside your hospitality training

How you will learn

You learn by doing the job. For each unit, your assessor observes you carrying out tasks at work and asks questions about what you're doing and why. You can also build a portfolio of evidence showing the skills you've gained. Your assessor confirms you've met the standard for each unit before you move on. There are no written exams.

What you will need to bring

The centre will provide most materials. Foxes Academy will confirm anything else you need before you start.

What you could study next

After completing this Level 1 hospitality services qualification, you could move on to a Level 2 NVQ in Hospitality Services or a Level 2 NVQ in Food and Beverage Service. These build on the practical skills you've gained and open the door to more senior roles in hospitality. A Level 2 qualification is also a step toward apprenticeship programmes in catering and hospitality.
