Looking to get qualified while working in a fast-paced, customer-facing role? This Level 2 apprenticeship is a great first step into the world of hospitality, with hands-on experience in a wide range of settings—from cafés and restaurants to hotels, bars and pubs.
As a Food and Beverage Team Member, you’ll play a key role in making sure guests have a great experience. From preparing and serving food and drink, to handling transactions and promoting specials, you’ll learn how to deliver excellent customer service in every interaction.
Whether you’re just starting out or already working in the industry, this nationally recognised qualification is a great way to gain valuable skills and progress in your career.
Why choose this apprenticeship?
During the apprenticeship, you’ll build a portfolio to show how you’re developing the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed for the role. Your learning will be assessed through a practical observation, a business project and a final interview with an independent assessor.
Key learning areas include:
You will need to have relevant employment, and entry is subject to interview and assessment.
GCSE English and maths grade 4/C or above (or Level 2 functional skills) are preferred.
On successful completion of this Apprenticeship, you’ll be in a strong position to take on more higher roles in the industry such as a supervisor or manager. Others continue into higher-level hospitality qualifications inlcuding level 3 and level 4 apprenticeships.
Your progress will be continuously monitored and supported by a Professional Trainer.
Depending on the standard, we assess your competence through various methods, such as practical exams, assignments, interviews, project work, presentations or observations and we will also evaluate your portfolio of evidence, which documents your learning and progress throughout your apprenticeship with us.
The apprenticeship end-point assessment is the final evaluation stage of your apprenticeship programme. It's designed to determine whether you have achieved the knowledge, skills, and behaviours required to meet the apprenticeship standard and perform the job role independently.
Successful completion of the end-point assessment is required to receive certification.
