Abstract
Vocational education plays an important role in the development of the country's education and employment
sectors. It helps to increase the knowledge capital of the job seekers and to supply the labor market with the demand
related to the occupations. In the conditions of high unemployment, it is especially relevant to support the mentioned
direction in order to facilitate the increase in the availability of highly qualified specialists adapted to the
requirements of the labor market by focusing on vocational training.
In order to assess the challenges of vocational education in the tourism sector, we conducted
qualitative research and focus groups in the tourism sector. The study involved the private and public sectors,
experts in the field, vocational education institutions, sectoral associations and others.
The research process highlighted the need to implement a number of measures to address the existing
challenges, which will help to encourage and stimulate vocational education in the tourism sector. Measures to
be taken include program updates, modification / restoration of canceled programs, intensive involvement of the
private sector in the teaching-learning process, increase in the awareness and popularity of vocational education
in general, and more.
