The Post Diploma in Hospitality Management and Post Diploma in Hospitality Management with Co-op have been designed to provide students with advanced knowledge of hospitality management principles and practices that will enable them to seek above entry level  supervisory and managerial positions in the hospitality industry while acquiring the requisite knowledge needed to pursue advanced studies. The Post Diploma integrates theoretical and pragmatic knowledge through both theory and expert in-class and/or online instruction and was designed for students who have successfully completed a related academic credential (i.e. diploma and/or degree) but require updating of their skill sets or new skills as well as a more recent and/or a more competitive GPA to actively pursue a higher level job opportunity or advanced study programs at one of BC’s postsecondary education institutions.

The Post Diploma in Hospitality Management and Post Diploma in Hospitality Management with Co-op will provide students with access to advanced education programming for students from local and global destinations and will enable students to study in VPCHM’s supportive multi-cultural learning environment.
