Course Overview
The Advanced Diploma in Online Booking System Management is a UK Level 5-equivalent 12 to 15 months programme covering online booking systems, OTA connectivity and channel management. LSHRM has structured the Advanced Diploma in Online Booking System Management around live UK hospitality routines, with material aligned to standards used by Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) and UKHospitality, and reference points from Institute of Data and Marketing (IDM). Students work through applied exercises, decision cases and structured written tasks that mirror what happens on a real hotel or resort floor, giving the Advanced Diploma in Online Booking System Management genuine occupational relevance from the first week of study. Tutorial support is scheduled across each teaching block, and formative feedback is embedded through the programme rather than held back for a single end-of-course judgement.

The Advanced Diploma in Online Booking System Management is designed so that every core assessment produces evidence you can take directly into an interview, a workplace review or an application to a UK hotel group, and the tutoring team stays involved through post-course reference and portfolio guidance.
