Why choose
Travel and Tourism Level 2 Extended Certificate?


At Brock our Travel and Tourism teaching staff bring a tangible sense of realism to a subject that can seem remote if not handled correctly.

We believe in an ethos of student centred-learning, which means in some cases you and your peers will drive the learning agenda. This not only helps you focus on specific areas of personal interest, but allows you to take more responsibility for your personal development.

Teaching & learning


You will learn using a range of techniques that are designed to keep your motivation high. For example, team working, discussion, online activities and paired and individual work all form part of the learning curve.

You will also be encouraged to carry out your own research within a supportive and constructive teaching framework. As a result, you will acquire new knowledge and transferable skills that will help you both personally and professionally.
