This two-year Ontario College Diploma program is designed to develop the multi-faceted skills required to work in the travel industry. Students acquire an understanding of the travel business, become familiar with the world's tourist areas, and develop the marketing and communication skills necessary to function effectively in a travel organization. Emphasis is placed on understanding travel industry technology, fare assessment, selling techniques, customer relations, guidelines, and regulations and product knowledge.
The travel industry is hectic, fast-paced and continually changing. The nature of the work demands that candidates have strong interpersonal and communication skills and are willing to work with the public. Maturity and a willingness to accept responsibility are also essential.
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
