Taking place during South Africa’s Tourism Month and Heritage Month, the upcoming National Tourism Career Expo (NTCE) of 2019 shares valuable and up-to-date insight on our country’s tourism and hospitality industries, true to its theme of “Broadening Your Horizons Through Tourism Opportunities”.
For its eleventh year running, the National Tourism Career Expo, hosted by the Department of Tourism in their paid partnership with the North West Department of Economic Development and other significant departments, will take place in the North West province for the second year and is an incredible opportunity to enjoy all that the city of Rustenburg has to offer. One of the aims of this highly anticipated expo is to drive the goal set out by the National Tourism Sector Strategy, of creating 300 000 job opportunities within South Africa’s tourism sector.
Passing on The Torch
Taking place at the Royal Marang Hotel from the 19th to the 21st of September, those in tourism teaching and educator roles will be able to enhance their curricula to students and connect and share information with those in similar job roles. Stakeholders, industry skills specialists and key players within the industry will also shed light on careers available in the tourism sector. Created to bridge the information gap that exists between the government, the tourism industry, educators as well as learners, the National Tourism Career Expo facilitates interaction for important information to be passed along and applied.
For educators who have not received formal education on the subjects of tourism and hospitality, this upcoming National Tourism Career Expo is an excellent platform that promotes learning and growth. Another key objective of this valuable expo is that it highlights tourism as a career path to be followed by students and young learners. There are a variety of dynamic career choices within South Africa’s Tourism Sector, as well as a large selection of exhibitors who will be representing the opportunities that lie ahead for our country’s youth.
For accommodation close to this expo, Tshiberry Bed & Breakfast offers guests 5-star facilities close to several family-friendly attractions in and around Rustenburg.
