New Level 3 Certificate dates available now!

Our course dates are filling up, so we added a new one! Here’s some of the crew from Christmas last year.

The New Zealand Certificate in Tourism with a strand in Tourism and Travel Level 3 is one of our most popular course options.

It’s a fantastic entry-level course for anyone looking to take their first step into a career in travel and tourism, and it covers all the basic information you’ll need to work in a variety of roles, from hotel jobs to flight attending, travel agencies to airports.

This qualification is so popular, in fact, that the next start date on February 12 for the Auckland City Campus is already completely full. That’s why we’ve announced another intake for this course at the Auckland City Campus, which will start on March 11 (and is already starting to fill up!).

ITC announces new August and November course start dates

To help with demand for staff, ITC is launching two new start dates for our level 3 courses this year.

Here at ITC, we’ve spent the entire past year talking about how the travel and tourism industry will desperately need qualified workers as soon as the borders reopen.

Now that we’re seeing those staff shortages really kicking in, we want to do everything we can to help the industry. We know the industry needs us, as a provider of valuable travel and tourism qualifications, to help prepare the next generation of workers.

Due to the demand of people wanting to study tourism and the fact we want to help our industry, ITC has decided to add two new start dates for our Auckland City and Botany Campuses.
