Why study Level 5 Extended Diploma in Tourism and Hospitality Management
Some individuals are naturally gifted communicators. Their outgoing abilities peek through in every interaction with others. But what’s even more impressive about them is that they can utilise this aura. If you consider yourself a member of this group and possess exceptional communication abilities, a job in hospitality and tourism may be for you!
In recent years, tourism has become a significant industry that has had a significant influence on the growth of national economies. The primary benefits of tourism are the development of money and employment opportunities. Tourism is the most significant source of income for many communities. Therefore, it is advantageous for nations to respond proportionally by establishing the required infrastructure and enhancing their capacity to meet the demands of visitors.
This is also where the significance of studying tourism resides. You have a significant need for skilled individuals and a really appealing field. What do you have to lose?
But what exactly do you learn in a hospitality and tourism programme?
This Level 5 Extended Diploma in Tourism and Hospitality Management (240 Credits) will provide the most valued asset in the form of business management abilities.

This business is so exciting and attractive to young students due to the abundance of opportunities for transferrable skills to be utilised.
Advantages of Studying Tourism and Hospitality Management
No two days are same
Given that tourism is a people-oriented profession, many tourism jobs need quick thinking, creativity, and stepping out of your comfort zone. If people want you to lead them through their holiday, you will need to establish a portfolio of your own exciting experiences. The days of a tour guide, hotel manager, or travel attendant are lively, and there will be few to no dull times to recall. No surprise people who study or work in this subject are often gregarious and laid-back!
The adaptable schedule
If you’re seeking for a profession that will allow you to escape the usual 9-to-5 grind, you should consider tourism. It is not the traditional employment in which one is confined to an office all day and waits for allotted work to fill the day. In the hotel industry, it is frequently feasible to earn a full-time salary while working fewer than 40 hours per week. Win-win.
You can work both locally and globally
This is not always the case, despite the fact that many people choose to study hospitality and tourism since it affords them numerous travel chances. Many people may have the motivation and desire to work in this region, but they may not be willing to travel frequently. You have the option of devoting your time to local or international tourism. Each nation has its hidden treasures, and we have no doubt that yours is no exception. So that you may contribute to its promotion and increase its capacity to assist foreigners while remaining in your native country.
The possibilities are limitless.
Did we previously emphasise the transferrable abilities acquired via tourist management study? So, here we are underlining them one more. The tourist sector is replete with dynamics that prepare you for a variety of problems, situations, and settings. Therefore, a job in tourism might truly expand your horizons, particularly if you desire to combine work with travel.
You contribute to a legacy
Tourism has a sociocultural influence on landscapes and individuals. It influences the lifestyles and cultures of both locals and tourists. Students at the London School of Business and Research (LSBR) revealed in one of their studies that tourism is lauded for its capacity to promote and commercialise local goods and resources in an exemplary manner.
Consider that by participating in this business, you are directly contributing to the revitalisation and preservation of local traditions, customs, cultural life, handicrafts, arts, culture, artists, identity and history, as well as the revitalisation of local architectural traditions.

I attended this school and I am very appreciative of my education. My previous credits transferred in nicely. And my 120 credits from my level 5 diploma got transferred to University of Northampton for my BSc Degree. Don’t know how to thank you LSBR for the online platform that you offer for working professionals like me. Thank you so so much 🙂

Putting into practice what you are learning is what stays with you for a life time. I have very fond memories of my interaction during one of the networking sessions where I have made new friends from the industry. All thanks to LSBR for their support and help.
Bhaskar
I had a great experience. I graduated on time without any issues. My advisor was great as well as the other advisors that helped me when she was out of the office. The online cohort is very fast paced and very demanding.
Justin
Nice course. thank you
Jonathan
I enjoyed my time at LSBR a great deal. I had good instructors; but as with any school, some will be more engaging than others. I would definitely recommend this school to any professional who is looking for a good course while juggling between personal and professional career.

Very demanding course. I couldn’t find time.

London School of business and research is a great institution that encourages its students to make a positive impact in society. My diploma in accounting and business serves me well as a retiree and highlights the importance of active citizenship in a rapidly changing world.
Ty Arrey Eno-Tambe
This is not an easy program. I spent at least 6 hours every week on reading and assignments. Don’t expect this to be a diploma mill.
Nikola
All thank to London School of Business and Research that now I am working as an Accounts Intern with JSW Finance in Belgrade. I am now enrolled in BSc Degree with LSBR and look forward to graduating next year.
Lazar
A perfect course for me. I could easily complete the course modules during my transit time from home to office and back. I devoted 2 hours every Saturday for assignments. All along its been a great journey for me. Thank you LSBR and I am proud to be an alumni of London School of Business and Research. ?
Spencer L. Felder
LSBR had everything I needed while giving me the flexibility to work full time and raise a family. There was help when I needed it and I felt supported by all the instructors and staff. Without their encouragement and family feeling my bachelors would not be possible.
