Canterbury College - Travel and Tourism

Travel and tourism is as much about far-off shores and foreign travel as tourism in the UK.

Students are taught by lecturers who have worked in the travel and tourism industry. Final year students can go on a trip abroad to put their learning into practice.

As part of the course, students train on a real airplane as cabin crew members. They also go on residential trips where they can practise their resort rep skills.
