Diploma in Hospitality Quality Assurance

Course Overview

The Diploma in Hospitality Quality Assurance sits within LSHRM's Housekeeping & Property Management portfolio as a 9 to 12-month UK Level 4-equivalent Diploma focused on hospitality quality assurance. The programme is developed with UK hospitality practice in mind and aligned with sector bodies including the Institute of Hospitality, British Institute of Cleaning Science (BICSc) and IWFM. Learners work through a structured set of modules, applied case exercises and reflective assessments that connect subject content directly to the daily realities faced by London hotel groups, resort operators and serviced-apartment providers.
