Do it, apply! If you want to work in the hospitality and catering indsutry this course is for you, you learn skills for life. My career wouldn't be possible without the course.

industry Jade started her Lancaster & Morecambe College journey after school in 2015, studying Hospitality & Catering Level 2 then later progressing onto . She chose to study at LMC as she had heard from friends that it was the best college in the area and had also seen in the media that many great chefs had trained here.

Jade loved all aspects of her course, never finding a dull moment. During her time here, she gained all the relevant skills, knowledge and behaviours that allowed her to get her dream career. Having the opportunity to work in our on site restaurant, The Bay Restraunt  allowed Jade to develop her confidence and customer service skills further.

The best part of my course was every part! I really enjoyed the practical side, when we got to cook, as it allowed me to gain valuable skills that I still use today. 

In her current job as a café worker, Jade utilises everything she learnt at college on a day to day basis. The course greatly benefited her as she learnt a variety of skills including time management, teamworking and how to deliver quality service.

I know my tutors would laugh at me for saying I learnt time management, but honestly all the skills I learnt have stayed with me since I left college. It's really all thanks to my tutors Adrian and Julie as they supplied me with everything I needed to know to work in this industry.

Jade uses the cooking and baking skills she learnt at college at home and as a hobby. She even entered a local show with her cooking, saying:

I won 1st prize at a local show for my rasberry jam! I even got a mention on James Martin's Saturday Morning.

Since leaving college Jade has always been employed in the hospitality industry, her first job was as a supervisor at Aspect Bar and Bistro where she worked for over 5 years. She would definitely recommend the course to anyone thinking about it.
