Professional Association of Catering Education - PACE

Who are we?

PACE is an educational resource offering learners the opportunity to explore various courses within hospitality at an entry level, enabling career progression and development. PACE provide all of the learning content and resource material, which includes training videos and online workbooks to support the duration of the learner’s journey. Our online platform, the Mobile Portfolio serves as an interactive tool for the learner, provider, employer and awarding body to use as a communication and learning platform.

How does it work?

The learner selects their chosen course, pays a one off fee of £29 and is able to explore the course through educational material available online such as interactive workbooks and videos. Upon completion of the course, the learner will receive a card denoting a skill level, which acts as a pocket-sized portfolio and CV. The learner also has the ability to progress to higher levels and will have access to the app anytime, anywhere so they can keep educating on the go.
