Short Hospitality Courses
5-day hospitality courses
Are you interested in hospitality work but don’t have the skills or experience? Then we have a great opportunity for you!
Busy hospitality venues across the Fraser Coast have plenty of vacancies, but not a lot of time to train – meaning they need job-ready workers as much as possible.
To address this skills gap and support local people into local work, Jobs Fraser Coast is partnering with the Local Jobs program, Strategix Training Group and Hervey Bay RSL to run a hands-on course that will give participants genuine job-ready skills.
