What you'll learn

Great service is a skill, not a personality trait — and it can be taught. This programme covers the craft of hospitality and the professional habits that go with it.

  • Basic principles of hospitality & service — what good service actually looks like.
  • Customer service in the 21st century — modern expectations, and how to meet them.
  • Psychology of food & beverage service — understanding what guests respond to and why.
  • Remedial mathematics & English — strengthening the basics the job relies on.
  • Life skills & information technology — personal development and practical computer skills.
  • Resume writing & mock interviews — preparing for the application itself.
  • Business enterprise — the commercial side of hospitality.
  • Professional dress day, guest speakers & field tours — learning from people working in the industry now.

Who it's for

  • Young people in Antigua & Barbuda who enjoy working with people.
  • Anyone looking to enter the island's tourism and hospitality sector.
  • No experience needed — everything is taught from the ground up.

Where it can take you

  • Work front of house in hotels, restaurants and bars — as a server, host or attendant.
  • Step into Antigua's busiest employment sector with a certificate and references.
  • Build toward supervisory and front-of-house management roles over time.
