What can I expect from a travel and tourism qualification?
Depending on what you choose to study, you could be learning about the business of travel and tourism, the UK as a tourism destination, as well as customer service in travel and tourism. You will learn about tour operations, holiday representatives, events management, entertainments for holidaymakers and sustainable tourism.
If it’s specifically air cabin crew you are interested in, you will gain an introduction into safety procedures, standard operating procedures, aviation medicine and the glamorous side of impeccable grooming that is essential to the industry.
Not to mention that you will also be taught by industry experts! Our members of staff haven’t been teachers all their lives, they’ve also worked in industry for organisations such as Virgin Atlantic and East Midlands Airport. Their knowledge is invaluable.
Where will I be studying?
You will be based at our City Campus and have the opportunity to learn in our life-size plane simulator or on our airport security desk. Without a doubt you’ll get a taste of what doing the job is actually like.
