Tourism Leaders Are Talking

Developing strong, competent tourism professionals has never been more important.

“Workforce development and education has always been an important part of destination management, but as we rebuild our workforce and respond to industry-wide staffing shortages it is even increasingly so.”

Al Hutchinson, CEO Visit Baltimore & Destinations International Chair

“The Tourism Academy is important as the success of retaining and attracting diverse talent to this industry is directly correlated to the level of involvement in outreach, education and opportunities.”

Elliott Ferguson, CEO Destination DC

“A constant thing that I found is that no matter where you are or what the situation is, people have the capacity and ability to make it better or worst. By focusing on developing the people involved in the industry, the Tourism Academy is setting up a strong foundation that will allow the industry to build reliable and knowledgeable professionals capable of making every travel experience unforgettable. ”
