IAAPA chair Mario Mamon has said that education and training are two of the key challenges facing the attractions industry going forward.
“Quality education and training, in all aspects, are needed as the industry continues to grow all over the world, especially in the Asia-Pacific region,” said Mamon speaking in the Q2 edition of
Attractions Management magazine.
“Education and training not only hone and upgrade skill sets to meet or exceed international standards, they also prepare the next generation of workers, managers, and leaders in the industry.”
Mamons comments echo the sentiment of current TEA president Christine Kerr, who recently told
AM2 that the attractions industry
must continue to build on its initial forays into academia and develop courses worldwide to ensure the next generation of leaders are fully-equipped to succeed.
