Hospitality, Events and Tourism is a broad international sector with great potential. Tourism is one of the world's largest and still growing industries. In the Netherlands alone, for example, more than 450,000 people work in the hospitality industry, but there is also a high demand for service-oriented people outside the hospitality industry. Whether in hotels, events, travel organisations or recreation companies, hospitality and experience are key. Well-trained people with an eye for quality, experience and customer focus are indispensable for continuously raising this industry to a higher level.
Tio’s hospitality, event and tourism programmes have been ranked number one in various rankings for many years. Will you start your successful career with us?
