Aboriginal Tourism
The Academy, which is a culmination of three years of work with the Western Australia Indigenous Tourism Operators Council, specialises in building domestic and international tourism market capacity for the delivery of Aboriginal cultural tourism experiences.
The program provides opportunities for product, service, revenue and consumer market diversity and is creating operational capacity with online training and professional development activities.
