Study Guide
There are many ways that you might choose to make your way through the unit. The diagram and suggested sessions (below) will help to plan your learning through the Source and Use Information on the Hospitality Industry unit. The sessions outlined below are a suggestion only - you may have another way that you prefer to study.


Session 1 - Using relevant industry & compliance information - Pink & Aqua tiles

This includes:
  • Sources of information in the hospitality industry
  • Accessing specific information of relevance to the hospitality industry
  • Current product and service trends
  • Using knowledge to enhance the quality of work performance
  • Relevant laws specific to the hospitality industry
  • Ethical industry practices

A few points to think about for your blog or respond in the topic forums:

Choose one (1) example of how you can source information on the hospitality industry and explain how the information you gather from this source can enhance the quality of work performance.

Choose one (1) law that specifically relates to the hospitality industry and explain how this law is used in daily activities. What could happen if this law wasn't enforced by the supervisor?


Session 2 - Hospitality technology & updating personal knowledge - Yellow & Red tiles

This includes:
  • Current and emerging technologies that impact on operational duties
  • Using technology to improve work practices
  • Current and emerging technology in day to day work activities
  • Using a range of opportunities to update knowledge of the hospitality industry
  • Monitoring current issues and trends
  • Sharing updated information with colleagues

A few points to think about for your blog or respond in the topic forums:

 Research and discuss one (1) example of current and emerging technology that would impact on operational duties within a hospitality establishment. Discuss positives and negatives for the establishment if they were to implement this new technology.

Discuss the ways you personally monitor current issues and trends in the hospitality industry and comment on why it is important to stay up to date with this knowledge. How do you / or have you in the past shared updated information with colleagues?
