During your one year journey, you'll dive into the world of hospitality management, completing a total of 28 units. Our program is designed to help you grow step by step, blending face to face classes with online learning through our Student Web platform. You'll attend tutorials, workshops, and maybe even some field trips, all geared towards building your skills in hospitality.

One of the highlights of our program is the practical experience you'll gain. You'll spend time in real restaurant settings right here at Box Hill Institute, learning the ins and outs of the industry firsthand.
