UKH unveils new Education Landscape Guide

UKHospitality has partnered with the Strategic Development Network to launch the new Education Landscape Guide. 

The guide showcases how investing in skills and talent at an education level can help businesses discover new talent, develop their existing team, create new partnerships and increase their work within the community. 

In addition, the guide includes a few of the countless success stories from people working in the sector about how developing their skills and training has helped them progress. These include examples from Greene King, HIT Training, Marriott Hotels and Umbrella Training.

The accompanying index also goes step-by-step through the different ways to get involved, outlining the level of commitment required and the benefits from participating.

Kate Nicholls, chief executive of UKH, said: “Investing in developing our own pipeline of talent has never been more important and this guide offers a wealth of information on how to do just that, in a way that works for your business.

“There aren’t many sectors that can rival hospitality’s career offering with the variety of roles available and the buzz it offers, along with the prospect of going from bar to board in a matter of years.”

Sandra Kelly, skills director of UKH, added: “The education landscape is ever-changing and it can be complex to navigate, for both students and employers. That does mean there are hundreds of entry points to get involved, particularly with the introduction of hospitality T-Levels this year.

“UKHospitality has worked very closely with the Strategic Development Network to produce this guide dedicated for hospitality and we’re excited to go even further in how we can help businesses develop their next generation of talent.”
