The
‘Istituto Tecnico per il Turismo’ was founded in 2007
(Ministerial ITER project) to satisfy the growing demand
for education and training in tourism and modern languages.
This course,
as you can see from the
timetable structure outline, is geared towards technical/professional training, ample
space is given to subjects in the
technical/economical/business sphere and a third foreign
language is studied from the third year. Since the diploma
gives the possibility of enrolling in any university faculty
the aims are to concentrate on technical and executive
competencies, thus guiding the student to segments of the
tourism industry such as transport, hotels and restaurants
etc. sectors where these competencies are concentrated.
It is a school which,
after a five year course
issues a
secondary education diploma in tourism
and
provides the background
for a
career in this sector.
