Master the essential principles, terminology, and foundational practices of luxury private household service. This comprehensive course integrates global five-star hospitality standards with African and Zambian cultural context.

Tier 1 covers two core modules: Module 1 — Domestic Excellence (care of fine materials, table and beverage service, wardrobe and valet science, culinary support and provisioning) and Module 2 — Professionalism and Ethics (discretion and confidentiality, communication and diplomacy, professional presence and grooming, ethical decision-making). Completion of all lessons and a passing score of 80% or above on the unit assessment is required to earn your Tier 1 Foundation Certificate.
