Level 3 Tourism (TOU303)
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mr T. Baxter.
Level Three Tourism provides you with the opportunity to learn about the Tourism and Travel industries and the many different career pathways that are available within the sector. In 2025 the focus will be on visitor destinations that are close to home; New Zealand, Australia and the South Pacific.
A fieldtrip to Rotorua will provide a valuable insight into the industry and the impact tourism has on communities.
There has never been a better time to study Tourism. The borders have reopened and the industry is seeking a skilled, productive and capable workforce over the course of the next few years as they respond to changes to the industry.
This subject leads to tertiary-based courses in tourism at private providers, including some polytechnics and universities. Tourism is not an approved subject for University Entrance.
This subject would work well with PAT303, COM303, and CIV303.
