About this course

HND Hospitality Management Course in Nottingham. Classes run at Nottingham College City Hub, full-time during the day.

It covers operational practice across the UK, European, and international hospitality industries. You'll also study the strategic side of the sector. The course takes one year to complete full-time.

You'll finish with a Pearson Edexcel BTEC Higher National Diploma in Hospitality Management.

Who this course is for

This new Level 5 HND top-up course is the natural progression from our well-established HNC qualification and offers a broad introduction to the dynamic and exciting world of global hospitality. Students will learn about operational practice as well as the strategic development of the UK, European and international hospitality industries.

Whether you are new to hospitality or have relevant previous experience and want to widen your horizons, this highly-regarded and globally-recognised qualification could enhance your future career prospects.

The course gives students the opportunity to specialise in a hospitality management-related area and to progress to degree-level study. The units prepare students to move on to specific areas of hospitality management at Level 6 or to enter employment with the qualities and abilities necessary for roles that require personal responsibility and decision-making.

This course is subject to validation with a first intake planned for September 2025.
