Level 4 ITC students go on a famil of a lifetime

A recent famil saw our level 4 students exploring some of the North Island’s best attractions and accommodations.

One of the best parts about studying travel and tourism is that it means actually being able to experience the industry while you learn.

That means students aren’t cooped up inside throughout their studies at ITC. Instead we make a point of keeping things as exciting as they are educational with incredible famils that introduce students to the industry in the real world.

What is a famil? The word is short for ‘familiarisation’ and it is the chance to experience tourism products (AKA, get ‘familiar’ with them). It includes various accommodations, activities, sites, and tours. This is so you can really get a feel of what it would be like working in tourism.

Recently, our level four students went on an adventurous famil to visit attractions and learn about how it all works. While heavy rain meant that the original itinerary had to be tweaked slightly, here’s what they go up to!
