Tuesday, 15 June 20103 min read

The Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA), The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) School of Hotel & Tourism Management and the Institute For Tourism Studies (Macao SAR) will jointly organise an HR issues seminar at this year’s PATA Travel Mart in Macau SAR.

Themed ‘HR Challenges in the Tourism and Hospitality Industry: Promoting Industry and Academia Collaboration’, the one-day seminar will address the disconnect between theory and practice, training and work, from the perspective of both academia and industry key players.

There will be opportunities for students and Young PATA members to network with industry leaders from across the region.

The seminar will feature prominent speakers from all dimensions of the tourism industry, including employers, educators, students and employees in the tourism and hospitality trade.

The seminar will be held prior to the official opening of PATA Travel Mart 2010 at the Institute for Tourism Studies on September 14 from 9.00-17.30 hrs.

The registration fee is priced at US$30 for students, US$60 for PATA and Chapter members and PTM2010 participants and US$90 for non-members.
