We apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.
Tourism NT's new accreditation policy
From 1 July 2010, Tourism NT will provide particular marketing, promotion and distribution services exclusively to tourism product/service providers who are accredited with a TAAL licensed program (or who can demonstrate a certification standard equivalent or higher to the standards set by the Australian Tourism Accreditation Standard).
Tour Guide Training Project
Parks and Wildlife Service NT are developing a nationally accredited, e-learning tour guide training course to ensure consistent high quality tours are delivered across the entire Territory parks network.
This entry-level training course will be designed for flexible delivery so that the skills and knowledge of existing guides are recognised, and the needs of remote and urban communities are met. The package will put Parks and Wildlife managed parks on an even footing as the federally funded Kakadu and Uluru Kata Tjuta National Parks.
