Tourism 30 consists of:
50 hours of online theory
50 hours of a practical, hands-on work placement that will allow students to apply the theory they've learned in a professional workplace
optional Tourism Saskatchewan Think Tourism event, which will count towards your work placement hours (typically one day in either Saskatoon or Regina). If students choose not to attend the event, all 50 hours can be completed at the work placement.
Work placements provide students with an opportunity to see if a trade might be right for them. This is only possible with the support of our partner Tourism Saskatchewan.
All students, parents and mentors are encouraged to familiarize themselves with our work placement information.
Sask DLC coordinates student work placements and we will do our best to find a local placement; however, we may not be able to accommodate placements in all situations, and/or some travel may be required.
Travel is at the student’s expense. If you have questions about work placements or Sask DLC courses, email helpdesk@saskDLC.ca or call our main office at 306-252-1000.
