What makes Sir George Seymour College special?
Sir George
Seymour National College of Airline, Travel & Tourism is a Private Tertiary
Establishment specialising exclusively in education programmes for the airline,
travel & tourism industries. The College is fully government registered and
accredited, and offers programmes and full time courses at its Campuses in
Auckland, Hamilton, Rotorua, Wellington, Christchurch & Dunedin. We also offer
an extensive range of packages and options for use at secondary schools
nationwide for teaching and assessing the National Certificate in Tourism
(Introductory skills) Level 2, Version 3.
The
College has a commitment to achieving outstanding quality standards which has
formally been recognised by the travel & tourism industry.
We have a
close relationship with secondary schools nationwide and many of our tertiary
students come directly from schools. We recognised the need to offer an
alternative to existing resources and assessments at Tertiary level, which lead
to the completion of packages for the National Certificate in Tourism Level 2 in
2003, since this launch we have continued to introduce additional unit standard
packages & resources, remaining competitive and proactive with other providers.
With the fantastic ability to quickly enhance and develop our resources and act
on feedback and ideas received from secondary schools, ensuring our packages
match what works best for high schools, tourism teachers and secondary schools
nationwide.
Our
packages include student workbooks, teacher resources & assessments for all unit
standards included in the National Certificate in Tourism (Introductory skills)
Level 2, Version 3.
All
student workbooks come with the assessments (separately).
Teacher
kits include a copy of the student workbook & assessment, complete with all
answers, marking schedules, extra resources such as OHT's, games, activities &
puzzles which will save on your planning and preparation time.
We offer
20% discount off the RRP of ALL Lonely Planet guides when ordered through us,
which are great resources to use in the classroom. We are also able to access
good discounts on other Travel Guides, Maps & Atlases, so please feel free to
contact the team using the details at the top of this page.
Support for your School
Tourism Career talks for your tourism students - our Sales & Marketing team will
happily come and enthuse your students about careers in the airline, travel &
tourism industry. They can answer questions about salaries, career progression,
