Working in the travel industry is exciting – our travel, aviation, and hospitality course gives you the keys to access a dynamic career!
It offers you freedom, adventure and the space to discover the heart of your destination. Tourists rely on travel agents, cabin crew and holiday reps to make the most of their leisure and relaxation time away. They seek expert information on anything from which attractions to visit to planning celebration cruise itineraries. People employed as travel experts are at the heart of making special experiences happen for customers and benefitting local communities with sustainable tourism that respects the natural environment.
If you’re involved in any aspect of travel or hospitality whether agency, flight, transfer, excursion or cruise, this is a chance to demonstrate your personality, challenge yourself and escape your comfort zone. Working in a sunny holiday resort on the islands, welcoming and reassuring your guests from take-off to touch-down and making their holiday experience safe and relaxing, you’ll ensure your customers are satisfied and enjoy the best leisure and events.
The world really is your oyster if you choose this career. Travel gives you a global opportunity to work abroad in amazing destinations, develop your life skills and become more independent. You develop knowledge when you explore the location you’re working in, sampling the food and the local traditions, plus the rewards when you help guests make forever memories to treasure are real. You can meet new people from around the world – both guests and colleagues who will become your future friends – and you’ll get to experience new and different cultures. By broadening your horizons and working in the most beautiful locations in the world, the world is wide open to you to progress your career.
