The SHTM's MicroMasters in International Hospitality Management (MM), a unique and highly successful Master's level programme offered on the world-renowned edX online learning platform, continues to attract learners from around the world. With over 43,000 learners from 175 countries - 528 of whom chose verification of an official course certificate - this innovative online programme is a credit-bearing accelerated Master's level offering

First launched in January 2017, the MM programme takes a fresh approach to bridging the knowledge gap between higher education and the workplace. It prepares learners for careers that are in demand today by offering expertise in the dynamic field of international hospitality management through four courses: "Luxury Management", "Hospitality and Tourism Technology and Innovation", "Managing Marketing in the Hospitality and Tourism Industry" and "Managing Human Resources in
the Hospitality and Tourism Industry".
