Restaurant & Hospitality Skillnet Launches New E-Learning Programmes

Restaurant & Hospitality Skillnet has announced the launch of two new online training programmes designed to help hospitality businesses become more efficient and profitable.

The e-learning programmes were developed alongside industry expert Agility Hospitality to give restaurant and hospitality managers and supervisors the opportunity to upskill digitally.

The initiative aims to help hospitality businesses to improve processes, labour forecasting, and scheduling methods while reducing costs.

Track Productivity

Restaurant & Hospitality Skillnet noted that the programmes offer curricula that cover the core principles of Creating Continuous Improvements – including project selection, process monitoring, data analysis and installing changes – and the fundamentals of Labour Forecasting and Scheduling, including how to track productivity and manage a schedule forecast.

The new online programmes include microlearning multimedia modules that are designed to be completed in just a few minutes. The modules include trainer-led videos, images, text, and downloadable documents.
