May 23, 2018
To mark Tourism Week, May 27 – June 1, the Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment (ITI) is offering a series of 2-hour NorthernMost Host workshops.
There is an added incentive during Tourism Week – all participants who complete the training will receive a sign for their business in Cantonese and Mandarin. The signage recognizes 2018 as the year of Canada-China Tourism and better serves the growing market of visitors to the NWT from China.
Below is a list of available workshops. Space is limited; please register in advance.
