ESOL Plus Travel and Tourism

Overview

What will I learn?

During the course you will combine working towards ESOL National 5 together with a range of Travel and Tourism units. 

The ESOL National 5 award develops reading, writing, listening and speaking skills with work on grammar and vocabulary.  The National 5 Award is achieved after sitting an external exam in May 2027.

The Travel and Tourism units taught on this course are:

• An Introduction to Airport Ground Operations
• Holiday Planning
• Selling Skills
• Working as Air Cabin Crew: an Introduction
• Accommodation and Package Holidays
• Tourist Destinations
• Holiday Issues

The course will give you a breadth of knowledge of the travel industry plus language skills to take you on to the next level and beyond.

What qualifications do I need?

You’ll need to have successfully completed a National 4 ESOL award or equivalent (CEFR Level B1).

For a place on the course, you’ll be invited to attend a language test to decide if this is a suitable level for you.

What can I do after?

This course will increase access to employment opportunities within the Travel and Tourism industry. 

Alternatively, you may want to develop your skills further by studying another course such as Travel and Tourism at Level 6.  In exceptional cases, you may be able to continue to Level 7, Higher National Certificate (HNC).
