AS/A Level Travel & Tourism
This course is one of a suite of vocationally- focused AS/A Levels. Using work-related contexts and innovative teaching and assessment methods, this course offers a broad introduction to the travel and tourism industry. It is ideal if you want to gain an AS/A level which combines academic studies with a more practical, 'real-world' approach.
You will have the opportunity to complete this course as a single AS award or as a double AS award.
Qualifications
This course starts from scratch and assumes no previous knowledge of Travel & Tourism. A GCSE in Leisure & Tourism may be of benefit to you, but it is not a requirement.
Study Visits / Fieldwork
You will be offered a range of visits and enrichment and support activities such as trips to theme parks, local hotels and tourist venues. We hope to offer one residential trip to a major national or international tourist destination.
After the Course
This course prepares you for further or higher education in the same way as all AS/A levels. It will also enhance your prospects of working in the travel and tourism industry, for example, as a travel adviser, a hotel manager, an adventure holiday trainer or a theme park manager.
