As outlined in their report, \u201cthe tourism industry urgently requires digital competencies.\u201d To meet this demand, Vocational Education and Training (VET) institutions must take an active role in equipping the future workforce with the digital tools and knowledge they need to navigate and lead in the world of sustainable tourism.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">VET providers have a unique opportunity to bridge the skills gap by offering training programs that focus on both digital and green competencies. By aligning curricula with the latest industry trends, VET institutions can empower students with the knowledge and expertise to lead the digital transformation in tourism. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Want to dive deeper into how digital skills are reshaping the tourism industry?
