Classes focusing on tourism educate students about various travel marts, such as surface travel, air travel, business travel, cruises, recreation and ecotourism.
Depending on the school where you take the classes, they can be completed in a semester (16 weeks) or only eight weeks. This class can be offered online or in a classroom at the college level, and it is usually a class toward a marketing or hospitality degree.
A course in tourism marketing is an asset to anyone working in the tourism/hospitality field or looking to apply for a job as a travel agent, concierge, lodging manager or event planner.
