Certificate IV - Diploma - Advanced Diploma

You can start with the Certificate IV in Kitchen Management (SIT40521) to build your foundational skills and industry confidence. From there, you can move into the Diploma of Hospitality Management (SIT50422) to develop supervisory and operational management skills. Once you hold the Diploma, you are eligible to progress into the Advanced Diploma of Hospitality Management (SIT60322), which prepares you for senior leadership and general management roles across the hospitality industry.

Each step is a smooth transition. Because all three qualifications sit within the AQF, your credits and completed units are formally recognised as you move from one level to the next. You are building on what you have already achieved – not starting from scratch.

Pathway into a Bachelor of Hospitality Management

If you want to continue into university-level study, completing a Diploma or Advanced Diploma may give you the option to enter a Bachelor of Hospitality Management degree with advanced standing. This means you could skip early units in your undergraduate degree and reduce the overall time it takes to complete your bachelor qualification. Entry requirements vary by university, so we encourage you to speak with our team about your options.

Expert Tip
