Education and Training

The TICT conducts various research projects to assess the stability and growth of the tourism industry. Research is done on either a quarterly or yearly basis and is often in conjunction with Tourism Tasmania.

In this past year, we have conducted a study into the training needs and demands of industry. The results have acted as a catalyst for an ambitious change program to be undertaken at Drysdale Institute of TAFE. The changes occurring as a result of our lobbying will ensure our industry needs for training are delivered in the format that best suits tourism businesses in the future.

Recently TICT undertook the 2008 Training Demand Profile Project funded by Skills Tasmania. TICT engaged sub-contractor, Mischief Business Engineering, to undertake the necessary research for the project.

The scope of the project was to provide advice in order to review, update and improve the tourism and hospitality training demand profile for the tourism and hospitality industries identify issues relating to the current delivery of training in the tourism and hospitality sectors.

The final Training Demand Profile Report 2008 has been prepared by Mischief Business Engineering.
