Overview

Ecotourism can have a positive impact on both the environment and local communities. Unlike traditional tourism, which may exploit natural resources and contribute to environmental degradation, ecotourism aims to promote conservation and sustainability. Many ecotourism initiatives focus on educating visitors about local ecosystems, wildlife, and conservation efforts.

Discover the essence of ecotourism through an exploration of its fundamental principles, diving into the delicate balance between adventure and environmental conservation. Find out the intricacies of ecological systems and learn how responsible travel practices contribute to the preservation of our natural wonders.

Sustainability lies at the core of ecotourism, and our course unveils the practices that ensure a lasting impact. From meticulous natural resource management to strategic ecotourism planning and management, you'll be equipped with the tools to become a steward of responsible travel.

Embrace a holistic approach that combines adventure, culture, and conservation, and join us on a journey where every step is a conscious stride towards a greener, more sustainable future. Enrol now and be a catalyst for positive change in the realm of ecotourism.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
