Frequently Asked Questions
Are these qualifications nationally recognised?
Yes. Both hospitality qualifications are nationally recognised and delivered under EDB Training Services (RTO ID: 32376).
Which qualification should I start with?
If you are new to hospitality, the Certificate II is the ideal entry point. The Certificate III builds broader skills with options to specialise in food and beverage, accommodation, or gaming.
Do I have to complete work placement?
Yes. Hands-on experience is a core part of the training - the Certificate II requires a minimum of 12 shifts and the Certificate III requires 36 shifts in a real hospitality venue. Placement can be paid or voluntary.
Am I eligible for government funding?
Funding depends on your residency, age, and prior qualifications. School students may study the Certificate II fee-free through VETiS, and the Career Start program subsidises the Certificate III for eligible Queenslanders. We'll confirm your eligibility before you enrol.
