Secondary school education for the needs of tourism and hospitality in Croatia- Analysis of the present state and proposals for improvement
The Republico of Croatia has a total of 93 voccational schools for professions in hospitality and tourism: chef, waiter, pastry- chef, hotel and tourism technician, and hotel and tourism sales officier. Evidetntly, the outcome of such a wide dispersion of educational institutions can ony be a decline in the quality of the teaching process. While there is obviously no lack of secondary schools in the field of hospitaltiy and tourism, the skills of pupils graduating from these schools are dubious in the opinion of many tourism and hospitaltiy professionals.It is assumed that the causes behind the adverse results of the enitire secondary schooling system lie in the lack of motivation in young people, who are likely to erol in a vocational school only after they have feiled to enrol in the secondary school of their choice. The educational system in Croatia needs to undergo through change. Or, rather, it needs to adapt to European educational standards, because after the flow of services and goods with the EU, the flow of labour is to be expected, which will demand standard education for various levels and profiles of personnel, at least with regard to basic core subjects. On the other hand, there is a need to integrate hospitality Schools in Croatia to create strong and well equpped county centers for the schoolilng of future workers in tourism and hospitality. This paper seeks to put forward concrete solutions for reorganising the Croatian schooling system for the needs of tourism and hospitaltiy and to meet the demands of modern tourism practice.
