Level 2 Tourism (2TOU)

Subject Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr E. Brown.

Tourism is a growing industry in New Zealand with a shortage of jobs and skilled people. Whether the student is interested in a career in working in outdoor tourist activities, event management, hotels, airlines or hospitality, this course introduces them to the initial knowledge and skills required for a successful career. It is also an appropriate course for anyone interested in travelling as it teaches some of the skills and knowledge required to make decisions on when, how and where to travel and how to get the best deals. Each student will be assessed in approximately 20 credits from the menu of standards available.

For students planning to attend university we recommend Level 2 Geography as either an additional or alternative subject as this course is not university approved.
