Certificate IV in Hospitality will lay an essential foundation for further study with our Diploma of Hospitality. While you extend your knowledge and skills on various facets of Hospitality, you will also become qualified to be a team leader and supervisor.

The SIT40416 Certificate IV in Hospitality qualification covers a wide range of core hospitality topics, and exciting electives. Graduates who complete their Certificate IV in Hospitality will be competent in the responsible service of alcohol, food safety and hygiene, bartending, coffee making and food and beverage service skills. They will have the leadership skills to manage and lead others within a business, along with grounding in the financial and operational foundations of running a leading hospitality venue.
