In the Certificate IV, the student is trained across all the sections of a restaurant including food presentation, operating a bar, control and ordering stock, customer service and handling financial transactions.
In the Diploma, the student is trained to work as a supervisor within a restaurant. Subject areas include preparing budgets, rostering staff, establishing procedures, training colleagues, developing operational plans and managing financial and work place documents.
In the Advanced Diploma, the student is trained to work as a manager within a restaurant. Subject areas include managing staff, monitoring staff performance, recruiting and selecting staff, managing financial operations and managing the physical assets within the restaurant.
Work Experience, Activities & Events
The TAFE colleges work very closely with the five star hotels and restaurants in Perth & Western Australia. As part of the course, the students are assisted in obtaining paid part-time employment with these hotels and restaurants.

It is recommended that students complete industry work experience during their studies (upto 400 hours if finishing the Advanced Diploma).
Note: International students will need to apply for a work permit through the Australian Immigration Department to obtain paid work in industry.
