Course Overview

The travel industry is unique in that its clients spend a lot of time with the service provider. This means that they have a lot of time to thoroughly review and identify any issues they may have with the service. Without exceptional service standards, both the customer and the provider will not be satisfied. Regardless of the reason for their trip, customers expect a certain level of quality when it comes to their service. Therefore, it is important that the providers of goods and services meet the expectations of their customers.
This course will introduce the participants to quality management in the tourism industry. It will introduce you to the concept of customer care management and how it can help improve the performance of your business.

    We have been working with LEORON for the past two years and will be working with them again this upcoming year. The programs they delivered were fruitful and exciting and our organization has received positive feedback from the participants. What our organization aims to do is to provide at no cost training for all the private sector employees so that they may benefit from our offered programs in Innovation and Professional development. LEORON has helped us achieve this goal. We look forward to continuing this service and wish them the best of luck. Regards,
