Tio (tourism information course) University of Applied Sciences is a private organisation, founded by the business community in the nineteen sixties. Tio offers recognised daytime courses at Hbo (Higher education) and Mbo (Intermediate Vocational) level in the fields of event management, hotel industry and tourism.
Tio’s approach, as a private educator, is both intensive and personal. The Tio schools are small-scale, with short communication lines and small classes. This means the teachers and assistants can provide you with a lot of personal attention. The number of contact hours at Tio is high (around 24 hours a week). You won’t be inconvenienced by cancelled classes at Tio because any possible cancelled class is always rescheduled.
Tio’s courses are short and intensive. Tio gives you the opportunity to obtain your bachelor’s degree in just three years. A unique opportunity!
Opt to study at Tio and you opt for a career in the world’s largest industry. Globalisation has resulted in a constant worldwide growth in (business) travel, conferences, events and the hotel industry. Last year the worldwide turnover was 642 billion euro in this branch, equalling 30% of the total worldwide export of services.
