Do you enjoy traveling or
have experience in the tourism industry? This
specialization course offers the best of both
worlds - get paid to work in this fun and exciting
TESOL field, almost anywhere.
Tourism is an industry that continues to grow
annually. Millions of non-native English speakers
worldwide are planning to or already work in
this industry, but lack the skills to effectively
communicate with English-speaking tourists.
The students are store clerks, hotel staff,
or tour guides - actually, anyone involved in
the tourism industry. As a result, numerous
job possibilities are available to TESOL graduates
of this course. Job opportunities are divided
into different areas: hotel agents, travel planners
and suppliers, spa and resort staff, B&Bs,
airlines, cruise lines, entertainment, etc.
Advanced job opportunities are open to people
with tourism, sales/marketing, managerial, PR,
and other related backgrounds.
In order for foreign students to achieve their
professional goals, they must acquire the proper
education and be fluent in English.
This industry offers hospitality and tourism
programs at the college level. Programs - such
as accommodation, event and meeting management,
bartending, culinary training, restaurant and
catering studies, tourism and travel, cooking
classes and workshops, etc. - offer certificates
in the "tourism" category.

Advanced
training programs include certified travel agent
and counselor programs. Students need to learn how
to work in these fields, as well as to communicate
in English as they work within the tourism industry.
