INclusive TOURism professions. European curricula for accessible tourism manager and frontline staff.

Description

The IN-Tour project (INclusive TOURism professions. European curricula for accessible tourism manager and operator) aims to cover a gap in the training system in Europe related to Accessible Tourism.“Accessible tourism is about making it easy for everyone to enjoy tourism experiences. Making tourism more accessible is not only a social responsibility – there is also a compelling business case for improving accessibility as it can boost the competitiveness of tourism in Europe.[EC: http://ec.europa.eu/growth/sectors/tourism/offer/accessible_en] Based on this statement and considering that studies conducted by the European Commission have highlighted a significant gap in the supply of accessible services, estimating that at least an additional 1.2 million tourism enterprises will need to provide accessible services to meet future demand, the conclusion is that there’s a strong need for quality education and training on this subject. For this reason the In-Tour project aims to cover this need, providing quality training, in particular by:1. defining an occupational profile (according to ESCO definition) for Inclusive Tourism Manager and Inclusive Tourism Frontline Staff.2. specifying the skill gaps by connecting directly the demand with representatives of tourism industries and entrepreneurs and by analysing the good practices already developed3. defining the European Curricula in the accessible tourism sector, at EQF 6 level and EQF 4 level;4. designing a flexible and modular training path for both the CVs;5. delivering the curricula in pilots courses in different countries;The Curricula will be defined in a flexible an modular way in order to provide a general reference European model which could be implemented in each EU Member State. The Curricula will be tested though the local pilots and will integrate periods of work-based learning.
