Programmes offered by the World Sustainable Hospitality Alliance have been endorsed by the Institute of Hospitality since April 2026.
“Receiving endorsement from the Institute of Hospitality is a significant milestone for the World Sustainable Hospitality Alliance and the World Academy for Sustainable Hospitality. Recognition from a respected hospitality institution strengthens the quality, relevance, and credibility of our learning programmes and demonstrates their alignment with globally recognised professional standards.
For hospitality employers, this endorsement provides confidence that the skills and competencies developed through our courses reflect the industry’s evolving needs and support workforce resilience, leadership, and operational excellence. For learners around the world – including those participating in our Employability Programme and the World Academy – it adds meaningful professional recognition to their learning journey, strengthening employability, career progression, and lifelong development.
As our industry works towards a more resilient and Net Positive future, investing in people is as important as investing in technology or infrastructure. This endorsement reflects our shared commitment to developing the next generation of hospitality professionals with the knowledge, skills, and leadership required to create lasting positive impact for our businesses, communities, and the planet.”
