Course Overview

The Higher Diploma in Tourism Hospitality Integration is a UK Level 5+ Higher Diploma running 15 to 18 months. It articulates operational practice in tourism and hospitality integration into department-head and executive-track thinking, drawing on integrated management for teams working across tourism, travel and hospitality and the standards recognised UK hospitality bodies expect from senior practitioners. Cohorts include supervisors and assistant managers preparing for their first head-of-department appointment as well as international candidates targeting UK premium hospitality careers.

You will leave able to lead a cross-sector programme, manage its stakeholders and defend its commercial case to travel and hospitality partners. The Higher Diploma is deliberately shaped as a bridge into full honours-degree study, so every module is written to move you across that articulation with an evidence base a Bachelor's tutor will accept.
