| Abstract: | Many countries in higher education now feature a "sandwich placement" of some duration. This article reviews the literature on the aims and relevance of the periods of time spent in industry during degree and Higher National Diploma programmes in tourism management. The findings of a small-scale survey are presented and compared with the work of authors in the field. Key skills required by applicants for placements are identified as are those which are developed during the time with the employer. |
