The programme focuses on Niche Markets including Wildlife, Angling, Watersports and Genealogy. New for 2007 are Film Crews Welcome and Online courses in Ancestral Tourism and the Cairngorms National Park. The project is part funded by the European Social Fund.
Tourist Board Training (TBT) develops and co-ordinates innovative, flexible and sustainable learning opportunities and recently became a Leandirect Scotland branded learning centre.

ONLINE COURSES
Ancestral Tourism Online
The course has been developed to give participants an introduction to Scotland’s ancestral tourism initiative and equip them to provide advice and assistance to ancestral tourists locally and is aimed at frontline staff in tourism businesses such as accommodation establishments, restaurants, pubs and visitor attractions. The beauty of this course is that is can be completed in your own time. The cost to participate is £25.00 plus VAT per person.
Cairngorms Connections Online
The online course will provide information about the tourism product in the Cairngorms National Park (CNP) and will increase the learner’s awareness of the importance of good knowledge and customer relations in promoting Scotland’s National Parks. The course is also available in CD Rom format and is free to participate in.
