Project Management for Tourism, Hospitality and Leisure Developments

Hotels, lodges and leisure developments blend construction, design, brand standards and guest experience into a single project, often in remote or environmentally sensitive locations. This course covers the delivery of tourism and hospitality projects from concept to opening. It reflects the realities of African destinations where access, community relationships and conservation shape every decision.
