Training course for teachers of the tourism VET schools organised online, partly asynchronously and partly synchronously, in order to improve teachers’ knowledge on Accessible Tourism and introduce them to the basics of Edutainment. The online course, which includes presentations and handouts of the synchronous training event, is available for anyone who wants to learn about these topics.
Experimental transnational training activities: operational joint staff training events and students’ exchanges (April 2021, October 2021, February 2022, May 2022) organised in order to:
- test the new Training Modules on Accessible Tourism specifically designed and targeted to students of Tourism VET schools;
- experiment with new approaches to training based on edutainment;
- co-design and test the Game-based web app on accessible tourism.
The “First Transnational Training Activity, originally planned as a face-to-face event in Assisi – Italy, took place online, as a synchronous training event, due to the problems for travelling abroad following the Covid-19 pandemic.
The training activity was focused on the first two Training Modules on Accessible Tourism, developed by the GWB partnership and presented by the teachers of the partner schools to the attending students:
MODULE 1 – Introduction to Accessible Tourism for All.
MODULE 2 – Persons with disabilities and/or other specific access needs: requirements, barriers and problems.

The training activity was focused on the fourth Training Module on Accessible Tourism, developed by the GWB partnership and presented by ENAT to the attending students and teachers:MODULE 4 – Accessibility assessment and delivery of information about accessibility.The Programme and the detailed description of this third transnational training activity is available for consultation and download.
The “Fourth Transnational Training Activity” was not initially planned but was organised after requesting and obtaining authorisation from the Erasmus+ Italian agency, so that the students and teachers from the partner schools and the other partners’ representatives could meet and work together face to face at least once.
The event focused on all the accessible tourism issues addressed during the project and finally allowed the organisation and holding of training activities and “games without barriers” not only virtually, but in person, involving 30 students and 14 teachers from the three partner schools and 11 representatives of the technical partners.
