Program details

Overview

Through industry‑based learning, you’ll develop service leadership skills and gain hands‑on insight into the day‑to‑day operations of a travel professional. You’ll also learn about global destinations across North America, Europe, Australia, Asia and Africa, exploring how physical landscapes, history and culture shape each region’s tourism experience.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Direct entry requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or the equivalent, or admission as a mature applicant, together with Grade 12 English at the C or U level (or equivalent). The page does not publish a standardized English test score. Canadian citizens and permanent residents may satisfy the English requirement through successful completion of Seneca's own pre-admission test. International applicants must instead meet Seneca's institution-wide English requirements, which are not detailed on this programme page. Seneca recommends upgrading for applicants who do not meet the academic subject requirements.
