The University of the South Pacific will soon be offering two new programmes for Pacific TAFE.

USP will soon offer the Diploma of Culinary Arts & Management (Level 5) and Diploma of Hospitality Management ‑ Events, Food & Beverage and Front Office (Level 5).

The University says that both programmes are stair‑casing qualifications and builds from current programmes offered by Pacific TAFE.

Diploma of Culinary Arts & Management (Level 5) will draw from international menus and focus on planning, preparing, serving and measuring dish quality.

An important focus of the programme will be on Pacific food, ingredients and menu preparation techniques.

The Diploma of Hospitality Management ‑ Events, Food & Beverage and Front Office (Level 5) programme addresses the process of leading and managing service teams and also assesses tips on managing customer complaint and an understanding or related legislation to service delivery and hospitality operations.

Executive Director of Pacific TAFE Hasmukh Lal says that with growing visitors in the Pacific, it is imperative to increase quality of food and service adding this can be done with quality graduates for the workforce.

Lal further highlighted that both competency based Diplomas are developed based on market demand with a vision to expand and diversify hospitality offerings in the region as a regional provider.
