About this qualification

SIT10222 covers people who “participate in a range of routine and predictable hospitality work activities”, working under close supervision with clear directions.

Six units in total — three core and three electives. Nothing else on this site is smaller. It is designed to be completed quickly, often in schools or as a first step back into work.

The three core units are the irreducible minimum of hospitality work: working effectively with others, providing customer information and assistance, and participating in safe work practices.

No licensing, certification or legislative requirements attach to it. It is a taste of the industry and a genuine credential, and the register is honest that the work is routine and closely supervised.

Frequently asked questions

Are there entry requirements?
No. The register records no entry requirements for SIT10222.
Only six units — is it worth doing?
It is a nationally recognised qualification and the units credit toward Certificate II. For someone starting out, returning to work, or still at school, it is a real first step rather than a token.
Can I get a job with it?
The register describes routine, predictable work under close supervision. It opens the door; Certificate II and III are where the responsibility and pay sit.
Is it delivered in schools?
Frequently. Its size makes it practical to complete alongside senior secondary study — ask providers about VET delivered to secondary students.
What comes next?
SIT20322 Certificate II in Hospitality, or SIT20421 Certificate II in Cookery if the kitchen appeals more than the floor.
