Tourism on the Move: 
A Changing World for Educators

The 5th Annual Professional Development Workshop 
for Pacific Northwest Tourism Educators

August 21-23, 1995 in 
Whistler, British Columbia

About the Workshop
The 1995 workshop builds on the success of the four previous events. The
focus of this year's workshop is on trends and strategies associated with
tourism marketing in Canada, and the instructional resources useful in
addressing these patterns in a changing educational environment. The first
day focuses on providing all participants with a sound grounding in the
latest thinking on tourism marketing and research in Canada. The second
day has been divided into two 'streams' with either a secondary educators'
or post-secondary educators' emphasis to ensure the program meets the
interests of all participants. Day three provides an opportunity for
further interaction between all educators.

Highlights of this year's program include: 
* the launch of the new Tourism 11 and 12 Instructors' Resource Guide 
* the latest information on the new Canadian Tourism Commission 
* an interactive seminar on the use of market research for curriculum 
   development 
* a discussion of how the information highway can be used in the tourism
   classroom and for professional development 
* a humorous look at tourism and education 
* pre or post-workshop 'train-the-trainer' sessions for SuperHost, 
   SuperHost Japan, Visitor Information Counsellor Training and the 
   Local Tour Guide program 
* academic credit through Simon Fraser University's Faculty of Education, 
   to be completed during the fall semester (pending approval) 
* opportunities to meet and share ideas with your colleagues
