Programme Aim

The aim of the programme is to enable the Learner through experiential learning to integrate the theoretical and practical aspects of personal, social and pre-applied skills development. To achieve this learning outcome the programme blends knowledge, skill, know-how and competence development in a practical learning environment.
Learners will be introduced to a wide range of skills related to the tourist industry and encouraged to identify areas of the industry that they would like to participate in. This will be facilitated by assisting learners to identify their individual learning needs and all will be encouraged to reach their full potential.
