Posted on 22/01/2025 by

ITC graduate Leandi’s journey has been incredible so far. Hear what she’s been up to!

The team at ITC is often as much a family as it is a college, as we stay in touch with our students and cheer on their successes as they gain experience in the industry and travel around the world.

Meet the Study From Home student inspired by another ITC student!

Posted on 15/10/2024 by

Savannah (third from the right) and friends on a recent trip to the North Island as part of a tour.

Study From Home student and supermarket employee Savannah Larkin hopes to one day become a flight attendant (and we have no doubt she will achieve that goal!). But her story reminds us of another wonderful student, who was also working full time and dreaming of becoming a flight attendant – and is now doing just that!

In fact, that past student has inspired Savannah to follow in her footsteps (find out who below).

It’s so exciting to not just see our students succeed, but also to inspire others to do the same. So as you read Savannah’s story, think about whether you might be the next!

Posted on 25/09/2024 by

New technology is creating new pathways and career opportunities for those in the travel and tourism industry.

Like any industry, tourism and travel will evolve with the times. Even Instagram, a simple photo sharing platform, has already had a huge impact on the way people travel by creating Insta-famous locations, and by making lesser-known destinations more well known.

Now that technology continues to evolve, it is having even more of an effect on not just how we travel – but how we can work in the travel and tourism industry.
