Hospitality Industry Trust (HIT) Scotland
HIT Scotland is a charity that supports thousands of people working and studying in the hospitality industry in Scotland to broaden their skills and experience through the HIT scholarship programme.
Scholarships are open to anyone working or studying in Scottish hospitality, at all ages, all roles and all levels. This is made possible through industry support and sponsorship of fundraising events and outdoor challenges which offer a fun chance to network with your industry’s community.
HIT Scotland Tourism and Hospitality Talent Development Programme
Funded by the Scottish Government’s National Transition Training Fund, and administered by HIT Scotland, a Leadership, Management and Supervisory training programme was designed to motivate and develop top talent to recover faster from the significant impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had across the Tourism and Hospitality sectors in Scotland, including addressing recruitment and retention.
These fully funded scholarships are designed to give individuals new skills or knowledge, and experience best practice. Content varies by category, and personal objectives, but all are inspirational and drive development.
The scholarships, which are delivered locally, nationally and internationally, are available to anyone working in, or studying towards, the hospitality and tourism industry in Scotland.
A scholarship could take your staff to the hotels schools in Lausanne or a customer experience at Disney. The scholarships are paid for and delivered thanks to the generosity of the industry attending and supporting our events.
You can develop your own network by being part of these dynamic event committees and through this, you will be giving back to our industry to support the next generation.
