YATA Mentor Program
Be a step ahead in the industry with the YATA mentor program!
The YATA mentor program gives tourism students and young professionals an opportunity to meet regularly with a senior professional in the industry. Focus groups have found that due to the financial situation tourism students and young tourism professionals are finding it difficult to develop their careers and find jobs. YATA members are also lacking the direct contact with the industry to provide them with advice on tourism career paths and opportunities. The YATA mentor program has been developed for these reasons to assist young tourism students and professionals.
Missed last years Mentor Program? Don't worry, it will be back in 2010!
