Core Units 3rd
Edition
Hospitality Core Units is written for new industry trainees,
students studying hospitality at high school, TAFE or
on-the-job. The full colour, easy to follow format, with plenty
of questions, exercises, case studies and activities is written
in line with competency-based training and contains six chapters
providing information to meet the requirements for:
-
The NSW
Board of Studies Higher School
Certificate hospitality framework,
-
and the
Certificates II and III in Hospitality from
-
the SIT07
Tourism, Hospitality and Events Training Package.:
What sets this book apart is
its extensive industry audience. It is a great aid for teachers
and on-the-job trainers to apply to student/trainee self
directed activities. Its focus on current industry trends and
operations combines with providing readers with practical
activities and resources to research and seek additional
information. The book has a real 'hands-on' approach, whether
you are training in a five star hotel, or working at the local
boatshed, stocking the galleys of weekend houseboats. All the
knowledge and skills required to work professionally are
contained between its covers.

This new edition is
the best textbook available in Australia on “the essential
ingredients” required by people entering the hospitality
industry, and for those industry workers who are looking to
update their skills and knowledge. It provides clear and current
information in an easy to read format with plenty of student
activities and valuable web links.
It is an
ideal resource for students looking for a thorough understanding
of the service industry as part of a Certificate, Diploma or
Bachelor program.
