Cooperation with Enterprises of Austria
In Austria, tourism is one of the most important sectors of the economy. Local and foreign clients of Austrian tourism companies appreciate the excellent professional training of workers, developed infrastructure, and exclusive themed tour offerings. Austria is also considered a paradise for athletes, and this image is successfully maintained and promoted by sports equipment manufacturers. All of this is very valuable know-how for tourists that can be directed towards export and can become very profitable for enterprises worldwide. Austrian tourism enterprises are in high demand globally as exporters of management know-how or providers of training programs.
Cooperation with Austrian enterprises means effective cooperation for planning, development, relocation, and subsequent servicing of projects.
Enterprises specialize in the following areas:
• Development of destinations and tourism infrastructure (mountains, rivers and seas, cities and monuments, spas, health centers, nature);
• Innovations and development of enterprises (hotels, resort areas, restaurants, culinary enterprises);
• Business trips and travel for attending congresses (MICE - Meetings, Incentives, Congresses and Events);
• Culture (festivals, historical structures, fortresses and castles, monasteries, museums, gardens);
• Education and skills enhancement in the field of tourism (training, instructor preparation, development of study programs, construction and cooperation with schools and universities);
• Institutions for organizing recreation and tourism (amusement parks, casinos, ports).
Austrian institutions offering education in the field of tourism develop and enhance specialties, training, and courses aimed at obtaining specific qualifications. Such competence is a very successful export. The specialized university IMC in Krems, which among other things offers a course in tourism and leisure management, contributes to the development of the structure and academy of the University of Buraimi in northern Oman. The agreement provides for the planning of complete infrastructure, academic know-how, and licenses for the implementation of a total of six educational specialties. In addition, the higher education institution IMC in Krems has introduced practical testing of management know-how and project implementation, as well as management consulting for 4 years.
