The travel and tourism industry is one of the few industries in Australia that reflects a regular annual growth rate. This is currently in excess of 7% per annum aided by the annual visitor numbers of 2.4 million, and over 7 million Australians travelling within Australia and overseas. There are over 480,000 people employed in a variety of interesting and rewarding careers within the travel and tourism industry.
To provide the services required by these travellers, Australia requires a well-educated and trained workforce to ensure quality service. Few businesses in the travel and tourism industry employ staff who have not undertaken training prior to entering a job.
AFTA encourages anyone contemplating a career in the travel and tourism industry to seek guidance from AFTA Education and Training on the most appropriate and quality course available.
