May 18-19, 2021
In 2018, 13 partner organisations from 6 EU countries started the INCOME Tourism project, coordinated by Instituto Politécnico de Viana do Castelo (Portugal). The main aim is to develop a new learning approach based on a cooperative learning process joining Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) and tourism businesses, applied to soft skills learning.
A final conference will take place on 18 and 19 of May 2021, which will be held virtually, due to the global pandemic.
In the final conference, the key results from the INCOME Tourism project will be presented, along with a discussion of the future of higher education in tourism, the main challenges, and the advantages of closer cooperative learning between HEIs and businesses from different perspectives, namely – students, academy, and businesses.
