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.
