To create a career for yourself in the hospitality industry it would be really good to get started with the following training. Whether you work in the kitchen or front of house, everyone in a restaurant is seen as a food handler and apart from creating an amazing experience for people it is also your duty to keep people safe. To do so it is recommended by the FSA that the following courses are taken by anyone who works in the hospitality industry:
> Level 1 Food Safety and Hygiene (£10.00) https://www.virtual-college.co.uk/courses/food-and-drink/level-1-food-safety-and-hygiene
