Hospitalit-e Project on Track

For many years L&A has been at the forefront of new technology in Housekeeping and has successfully delivered many different training programs around the world. These workshops, courses and programs have always been in a face-to-face environment, but from early next year the first course ‘Finance for Housekeeping Managers’ will be available online. The online delivery is currently in development and almost complete.

This project is a collaboration between Lycette & Associates, Balfour College and PHAN (The Professional Housekeeping Association of NSW). The course and pilot, scheduled to take place this month has been financed through a grant awarded by the NSW Government under the Australian Flexible Learning Framework. PHAN members are participating in this month’s pilot course. Upon completion the participants will receive a certificate for 3 units of competency in Finance as part of the Certificate IV course in Hospitality. The units of competency are as follows:

The eleaning project team has worked hard and diligently to keep on track. After a recent mid-project meeting with the Australian Flexible Learning Framework the team was congratulated for its progress to date.

The pilot is scheduled for 14September and will take place at the Four Seasons Hotel in Sydney. Registration is already complete and the course is already at maximum capacity. Participants have signed up to undertake a maximum 6 hours per week over a 3-week period and the course concludes with a workplace-based assessment by the end of October. All participants agreed to provide the team with feedback upon completing this pilot course.

Finance for Housekeeping Managers will be available through L&A or Balfour College 4 times per year. Each course is run over several weeks and students move through all the subjects and assessments as a cohort.
