Higher Diploma in Tourism Revenue Management
Course Overview
The Higher Diploma in Tourism Revenue Management is a professional articulation LSTITM programme that connects supervisory tourism knowledge with department-lead revenue management practice. Delivered over 15 to 18 months across online, on-campus and distance modes, this UK Level 5+ Higher Diploma sits within the Tourism Professional and Strategic Studies department and is aligned with practice referenced by the Chartered Management Institute, UKHospitality and the Chartered Institute of Marketing. Learners work through units on demand forecasting, dynamic pricing, inventory optimisation, promotional governance and department-lead revenue reporting.
By graduation, students can build a small demand forecast for a UK tour operator or hospitality-adjacent tourism product, propose a dynamic pricing pattern, govern promotional activity across the season and brief senior leadership on revenue health with balanced evidence.
