Heading into Hospitality Routeway
Case Study
About the course
A group of several learners took part in our Hospitality Routeway in Durham to gain the necessary skills and qualifications to be able to progress into employment. This is what a few of the learners thought about the course.
Ashleigh (Hospitality Course, Durham, September 2021)
“I heard about the course through DurhamWorks, some skills I have learnt are how to listen better and how to make different types of coffee. I have enjoyed being around others and learning new things. This course will help me get a job by giving me the skills I need to work in a café. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to be a barista.”

Kai (Hospitality Course, Durham, September 2021)
“DurhamWorks told me about the course. I’ve learnt food hygiene and safety, social skills as well as how to make different drinks. This course will help me by giving me qualifications towards my careers goals.”
