Ever wondered what it’s really like to study hospitality at Ridge?
At Ridge International College, our hospitality isn’t just a course – it’s a lifestyle. From cooking in our buzzing kitchen lab to mastering the art of customer service, our hospitality students live and breathe hospitality every single day. Today, we’re giving you a peek into a day in the life of one of our passionate hospitality students.
Bright Start, Big Dreams
The day begins early, hospitality students know the value of being prepared. Dressed in crisp uniforms, they head to campus with purpose and excitement, ready to tackle whatever’s on the menu. There’s something special about walking into Ridge’s kitchen lab in the morning, the smells, the buzz, the energy. It feels like you’re stepping into your future.
Kitchen Lab: Where the Magic Happens
This is where the real action begins. Under the guidance of professional chefs and tutors, students roll up their sleeves and get to work. Each session is hands-on, full of learning, and a whole lot of fun.
Learning Beyond the Plate
After wiping down their stations, students head into class. But don’t expect boring lectures – Ridge’s theory sessions are real, relevant, and rooted in the industry.
Here’s what they learn:
- How to build a seasonal menu
- Managing food costs and suppliers
- Customer service skills that actually work
- Understanding Australian hospitality laws
Lunch & Laughs
Lunchtime is social time. Students often eat what they cooked, share feedback with each other, and laugh over little kitchen mishaps.
The best part? The friendships. Ridge’s student community is full of people from around the world, and lunchtime feels like a global food festival.
Reflection and Growth
Before heading home, students gather for feedback. Tutors highlight what went well, offer tips for improvement, and check in on everyone’s progress.
It’s a space of support, not pressure and one of the many reasons Ridge students feel confident, not just qualified.
Real Skills. Real Support. Real Results.
Hospitality at Ridge International College isn’t just about passing assessments – it’s about building a future.
Whether you want to manage a five-star hotel, open your own restaurant, or travel the world with your skills, it all starts here with real-world training and a community that believes in you.
