START

The START - Sustainable and Technological Approach to Rethink Tourism project aims to support the personal and professional development of tourism workers in partner countries through the co-design and implementation of a TRAINING PROGRAM FOR GREEN AND DIGITAL UPSKILLING FOR TOURISM OPERATORS to guide and inspire them towards rethinking their business models in a circular key, exploiting new digital technologies.

The course consists of 10 modules that cover the topics of tourism, environmental impact of tourism, EU policies on sustainability affecting tourism, tourism Insight, future of tourism, digitization and sustainability, social media and marketing in the tourism sector, certification of sustainable performance, rethinking tourism and are in the form of interactive OERs containing a multitude of further information materials and they were developed through the microlearning format.

These materials are complemented by two narrative branching scenarios that allow viewers to test their behavioural abilities and their knowledge of the learning contents of the OER, interacting with the simulation of a business context. Viewers are given three possible options to choose who they would behave in that circumstance.

Curious? Register for the course and see if you have what it takes to become a successful Tourism manager.
