Who this course is for

We would like to welcome you on board BC air to join us on your flightpath to your future. During your adventure, we aim to provide you with a world of opportunities in a diverse and growing sector, where your journey is just beginning with your destination being the sky is the limit. Choosing our sector, we feel you are on the right flight path as Visit Britain statistics state that the sector has been the fastest growing for employment in the UK since 2010 and by 2025, Britain is forecast to have a tourism industry worth over £257 billion. The course provides you with a wealth of knowledge about the Travel, Aviation, Hospitality & Events sectors which will enable you to make informed choices about your onward career plans. We offer a variety of runways (at different levels) for you to take-off from.
