Celebrating different cultures. Here the student is learning to wear a sari (Indian attire). The  Diploma of Tourism course has 33 units and they include units such as Working in a Socially Diverse Environment, Managing Quality Customer Service, Conflict Resolution and Destinations. At the college, we have Cultural Day where the students dress up in  ethnic costumes(a change from their business attire uniform) and bring a plate of food to share with the rest of the class. We have found this very beneficial for the students as it creates harmony and understanding among different cultures.

Students on a site seeing excursion after a site inspection of the cruise. Since the students are doing Diploma of Tourism, they learn about all aspects of the Tourism industry. Site Inspection was for the Majestic Cruises Show Boat at Darling Harbour. Some of the students would like to work in cruising and this was an apt opportunity for them to get a glimpse of it. The Rhapsody of the Sea cruise liner was in the harbour as well and the students were amazed!

One of the two computer labs at our campus. Students seen here are doing the online computer reservations systems (Galileo) course. The students do this for three hours a week for almost 30 weeks. They started in May and are now almost at the end of the course. The first two out of 40 students  successfully completed Galileo this week.
