Before, most people in tourism and hospitality had little training, with most gaining relevant knowledge and skills on the job. Thus the need for institutions that offer both quality education and practical experience. Today, schools offer both vocational and higher education qualifications at various levels.They also provide industry placement or paid internships. This means you can work in a reputable hotel or restaurant as part of the curriculum.
