Full-Time Courses : Hospitality & Professional Cookery

We offer practical based courses in a professional and commercial setting, where you will put your skills into practice in our highly acclaimed college Brasserie restaurant. All of our hospitality qualifications will enable you to achieve a real insight into the realistic aspects of the hospitality industry.

You will be taught by staff with a wealth of experience, both from education and industry, including four star hotels and restaurants, modern transport catering, contract catering and themed or ethnic restaurants. Our tutors are continually updating their own skills and knowledge to ensure that you are taught current industrial practices and our links with the industry ensure that you will use the very latest equipment and technology.

Work experience forms a major part of our courses; not only will you be working as part of a team in our busy college Brasserie and learning about all aspects of the hospitality and professional cookery industry but you will also go out on a placement in industry in each year of the course. In previous years students have enjoyed work experience at Coniston Hall Hotel, Weavers Restaurant in Haworth, Rudding Park House and Hotel, Betty’s Café, Angel Inn at Hetton and The Box Tree Restaurant, Ilkley.

80% of our students gain employment directly from their industrial placement.
