ABTA launches travel industry recruitment toolkit
ABTA has launched a new multi-media presentation toolkit to encourage people to consider careers in the travel industry.
Marking National Careers Week 2 – 9 March, the presentation is a first from ABTA.
It was created in response to member feedback revealing they want to give talks in schools and colleges but don’t have the time to build presentations from scratch.
This new resource aims to help them by providing a framework careers presentation that ABTA members can plug their own company and career information into.
The toolkit provides an insight into the UK outbound travel industry, reasons to work in travel, career ideas and helpful resources for students, including apprenticeships.
It also explains who ABTA is and what its members do, as well as additional travel advice from the FCDO’s Travel Aware campaign.
Members can use this presentation in tandem with their own branded content for information specific to their business.
The new guidance forms part of ABTA’s ongoing work on inspiring the next generation to #bepartoftravel.
This can be used alongside ABTA’s other #bepartoftravel marketing toolkits which contain additional videos, visuals and information.
“We want everyone to be afforded the chance to be inspired to be part of travel. This new presentation pack aims to save our members time when preparing to speak at their local schools and colleges,” Vicki Wolf, Head of Education and Career Development at ABTA said.
The toolkit and guidance on its use are available in the Abta.com member zone.
