ICRT Global rolls out responsible tourism courses
The International Centre for Responsible Tourism has launched two courses focused on how to develop responsible tourism and how to manage overtourism
The ten-week courses have both been constructed by Professor Emeritus Dr Harold Goodwin who pioneered Masters’ courses in responsible tourism management at Greenwich, Leeds Becket and Manchester Metropolitan Universities.
Harold’s background is in adult and continuing education and post graduate studies.
“Our ICRT global courses are designed for changemakers who want to make tourism better for communities, their local economy and better for businesses,” he said.
“Our responsible tourism course will look at how to create business advantages while developing sustainably. Our managing overtourism course will look at the many causes of overtourism, the range of solutions and the levers that can be used to manage them all.”
Matt Callaghan, COO of easyJet holidays which is supporting the new ICRT global courses said: “We believe that education, collaboration and rapid implementation are what is needed for us to jointly invest in enhancing the places we love to visit.”
ICRT global courses start from £365 for a ten-week online course including the final professional certificate.
The courses include videos of lectures, interviews and conversations, written course materials and links to further reading and resourcing.
It is aimed at anyone in the travel and hospitality industry, particularly middle and senior managers.
It is at postgraduate level but no degree is required to take part.
The first scheduled course including live seminars will begin on 30 January 2025.
