TRAINING

Towards quality rural tourism training in Europe

The development and dissemination of training materials for students as well as professionals in the rural tourism accommodation sector is mainly taken place on an ad-hoc and local basis. Too often the wheel is reinvented. No overview is available of existing training materials. Furthermore there is hardly a structural co-operation between networks of entrepreneurs' organisations and training institutes. Available resources are thus not used effectively having a serious impact on the quality and availability of training and education. There is a strong need for a European approach.

The EU Leonardo Da Vinci project “hospitality in Rural Tourism” is promoting more co-operation in Europe in the field of Rural Tourism Training by:
- Inventory and linking up of existing experiences
- Developing common European curricula and standards for training of rural tourism accommodation providers
- Promotion of a European certificate for rural tourism training
- Common development of training materials
- Exchange of existing training materials
- Creation of a permanent network of organisations and individuals working in rural tourism training
