About hospitality management
The hospitality industry offers exciting career opportunities in New Zealand and internationally. Training in this area will set you up with flexible, transferable skills that are in demand all around the globe.
You could work front of house or in the kitchen of a range of hospitality establishments including restaurants, outside catering operations, cafes, on cruise ships or in fast food outlets. Further study could steer you into roles including bar manager, restaurant supervisor and hotel head of department.
Studying hospitality management
When you study Hospitality Management at CPIT, you'll enjoy using first class training facilities which include five kitchens, a fully equipped training bar, a reception training area, a hotel suite and our Visions on Campus licensed training restaurant.
We have a close relationship with a number of international hospitality providers, such as the International College of Hotel Management (IHCM) in Adelaide. Staff and students have the opportunity to gain valuable international experience as a result of these partnerships.
In addition to comprehensive programmes at certificate and diploma levels, we also offer short courses and industry training, including the Licence Controller Qualification.
Graduates of the National Diploma in Hospitality Management can continue their studies at CPIT to gain a Bachelor of Applied Management. Our graduates can be found in operational and supervisory roles in hospitality establishments around the world.
Licence Controller qualification
Understanding the requirements of the Sale of Liquor Act and host responsibility practices is crucial knowledge for all staff working on licenced premises.
The New Zealand government has recognised this by making the Licence Controller Qualification (LCQ), a compulsory qualification for all holders of a General Manager’s certificate.
