ITC Tourism Experiences

We are excited to announce our Tourism Experience options:

These experiences are suitable for year 12 or 13 students in secondary schools who wish to learn more about this very popular career pathway.

 Business of Tourism Experience

As you will now be aware, there are unfortunately no Tourism Academies available in South/East Auckland.  This is why we have carefully designed our recent long term course options, whilst students remain at school. 

This fantastic course option will give students the opportunity to learn about tourism from a business point of view, with a real focus on the entrepreneurial side of things that Kiwis are so famous for.

This level three academy ensures learners can get the best start in the industry. Additionally, these courses cover a range of sectors in the industry, including adventure tourism, airline and airports, accommodation, activities, attractions and many more. 

We have a strong focus on communication, cultural awareness, enterprise & marketing, customer service, leadership, public speaking and presentation skills. These are all valuable skills our industry demands of their future workforce.

ITC’s own Ceri Jenkins has been heavily involved with getting the Business of Tourism Academy off the ground this year. He explained why the academy is so important for up-and-coming students in the industry:

“I know many people who now work in tourism wish there was something available like this for them when they were in school. It would have provided the exact pathway they were looking for and really opened their eyes to management and business ownership within tourism.”
