Summary
A Hospitality Team Member can work in a range of establishments, for example bars, restaurants, cafés, conference centres, banqueting venues, hotels or contract caterers. The role is very varied and although Hospitality Team Members tend to specialise in an area, they need to be adaptable and ready to support team members across the business, for example during busy periods.
Specialist areas in hospitality include food and beverage service, serving alcoholic beverages, barista, food preparation, housekeeping, concierge and guest services, reception, reservations, and conference and banqueting.
Course content includes:
- Customer service and communication
- Taking feedback from customers to improve and support brand standards
- Knowing the product and actively promote products and services
- Knowing how to support and influence team members
- Contributing to meetings, planning shifts and assisting in the monitoring of standards to ensure quality is maintained
You will complete the Level 2 Hospitality Team Member Apprenticeship Standard.
- This apprenticeship will involve college attendance and off the job training.
- You will also develop your knowledge, skills and behaviours.
- You need to have an employer to support your apprenticeship and must be employed in a relevant job role.
- The typical length of this course is 18 months.
- This course typically starts September- November but candidates might be able to enrol later in the year, pending further discussions.

Fees
Apprenticeship course fees are subject to the age of the apprentice, and the size of the company.
For employers with less than 50 employees who do not pay the apprenticeship levy and who take on an apprentice who is aged between 16-21 at the start of their apprenticeship, there will be no direct cost and the full training costs will be covered by Government funding. If the apprentice is aged 22+ the government partially subsides the training costs and the employer will need to pay 5% of the costs. In the case of this course, the fee would be £200.
For an employer with more than 50 employees a 5% charge will be implemented regardless of the age of the apprentice which in this case would be £200.
A levy paying company will pay the full cost of the apprenticeship from their levy account which in this case would be £4000.
Please note that course fees are to be paid by the employer and apprentices must not be asked to make a financial contribution toward their training.
To discuss apprenticeship course fees in more detail or for more information on recruiting an apprentice, please contact 01603 773365 or Apprenticeships@ccn.ac.uk.
