Objective
Tourism products are characterised by the importance of the human factor, which affects their quality to a large extent. In-service training offered to tourism workers, who are mostly seasonally employed, is not sufficiently suited to their specific needs. If tourism companies wish to continue providing services competitively in the European trading area, they must be able to offer their employees the opportunity to acquire and validate skills during off-season periods.
For this reason, the partners in the project propose to create training products which will meet the needs of this sector. Their aim is to first set up a network of companies and training organisations and then jointly create a pilot transnational training programme, a skills-measuring system as well as training modules leading to the establishment of new professional profiles such as that of "tourism event manager".
Impact
To make initial and in-service training better suited to employees in the tourism sector, improve their career prospects and increase industrial competitiveness.
