Bachelor in BTS - Services - Tourisme

The BTS Tourisme — a Higher National Certificate in Tourism — provides students with the operational knowledge and commercial skills needed to work in travel agencies, tour operators, destination management organizations, and hospitality businesses. The program covers travel geography, tourism economics, customer relations, booking and reservation systems, group itinerary planning, and the legal and regulatory framework of the travel industry. Language skills and intercultural communication are also integral parts of the curriculum. This two-year bachelor-level program at the Ecole Nationale De Commerce in Paris, France is conducted in French and begins in September. Yearly tuition is 178 EUR. Paris serves as a natural setting for tourism studies given France's status as a major global destination, and the program equips graduates to work in a sector that spans leisure, business, and cultural travel. Career paths include travel consultant, tour coordinator, destination specialist, group travel organizer, and customer service adviser within agencies or corporate travel departments. Graduates may also pursue a Licence professionnelle in tourism management to specialize further.
