Description:

The Tourism & Hospitality programs are looking for “people-oriented” individuals with a desire to work in a fast-paced environment. Tourism is the world’s fastest growing industry and a dynamic part of our economy as Canada’s 5th largest employer with 1 of every 10 people in Canada working in the tourism industry. There are 1.7 million people employed in tourism-related occupations in Canada and that number is projected to hit 2.12 million by 2025. It is estimated that by 2030, labour shortages in the Canadian Tourism sector will expand to 228,500 jobs (Canadian Tourism Human Resource Council 2012). There are over 400 different tourism career opportunities, and an increasing demand for management level personnel. Choose a career today in the diverse and dynamic tourism industry!
