旅遊酒店及計算機應用

TOURISM HOSPITALITY MANAGEMENT AND COMPUTER APPLICATIONS

專業介紹

最近在溫哥華勞動力市場的兩個研究都得出相同的結論,旅遊業在溫哥華是一個增長發展的行業。雖然這是個好消息,但它也帶來一些挑戰,那就是溫哥華是否有一個戰略的計劃,以確保在需要的地方和時間,有足夠的這方面人才。旅遊業的快速增長創造了各種職業的機會。如果你有興趣在這一行業中工作,作為一個前台代理人,管家或門童都是很好的入行方式。這些在前線工作人員的優勢,除了可以經常接觸從世界各地來開會的人,還可以多了解這一行業的不同方面。對於那些更感興趣在幕後工作的人,旅遊業也需要與企業和貿易有關的職位-包括會計,市場營銷,廚師,麵包師和木匠。每年有成千上萬的活動在溫哥華舉行,如會議,婚禮,研討會等等。旅遊業還需要銷售,支持和賽事工作人員。任何一個酒店的團隊都包括銷售代表,負責人,活動協調員和其他人員來幫助實現企業的利潤,並確保所有活動順利進行。那麼,不管你是否有興趣在前線或幕後,在山區度假村,野外露營區或一個在繁華城市的國際性酒店,職業生涯選擇在這個充滿活力的行業一定能適合你。

Program description: The two most recent labour market studies in BC have both come to the same conclusion—tourism in BC is a growth industry. Although this is great news, it does pose some challenges, not the least of which is establishing a strategy to make sure that BC has enough skilled people in the right place at the right time. The accommodation industry's rapid growth creates enormous opportunity for a variety of career experiences and opportunities. If you are interested in working in the accommodation industry, positions as a front desk agent, housekeeper or bell person are great ways to get an introduction to this sector. Along with meeting people from around the world, these front-line staff members have the advantage of learning about the various aspects of the hotel business (and an opportunity to climb the corporate ladder). For those who are more interested in being behind the scenes, the accommodation industry also requires workers for business and trade-related positions – including accountants, marketers, cooks, bakers and carpenters. With thousands of events being hosted at BC properties each year – such as conferences, weddings, seminars and so on – the accommodation sector also requires sales, support and event staff. An integral part of any hotel team includes sales representatives, concierges, event coordinators and others who help bring business to the property and ensure all of the events run smoothly. So, whether you're interested in being on the front lines or behind the scenes, working at a mountain resort, wilderness campground or a cosmopolitan hotel in the heart of the bustling city – a career in this dynamic industry can definitely accommodate you.
