Course summary

The HND in Hospitality and Event Management is a 2 year programme designed to develop industry standard skills in the fast paced, diverse and exciting events industry. The course offers a mix of classroom learning, trips and visits, and work experience. Covid-19 has had a devastating effect on many industries including the hospitality sector. As we are now emerging from the lockdowns the general public are desperate to attend events and visit hospitality venues. We predict a huge surge in demand for all kinds of events and our level 3 and HND Events programmes will give you the skills and experience to join this fantastic industry!

  • You will be given opportunities to plan, organise and deliver events within the community and beyond
  • You will have the opportunity to go on some fantastic trips and see behind the scenes at events
  • You will work with lecturers who have years of experience in the industry who can guide you throughout the course
This course is a blend of classroom learning in world-class facilities at our Broxbourne campus and challenging work placement opportunities.
