CAUTHE newsletter March 2015

Constitutional change
CAUTHE Logo V2 2015 - White Background_150CAUTHE members voted unanimously at the AGM in February to change the constitution so that Chapter membership is now open to the various higher education providers of Bachelor degree level and above in tourism and or hospitality and or events in Australia and New Zealand. The name of the association has been changed to The Council for Australasian Tourism and Hospitality Education Inc. (CAUTHE), ie ‘University’ removed (see new logo). The Objects have been updated so that represents the interests of higher education providers of Bachelor degree level and above in tourism, hospitality and events education.

We are delighted to welcome our first two new Chapter members since the constitutional change – the Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School and William Angliss Institute of TAFE. We look forward to welcoming new Chapter members from across Australia and New Zealand.

 

Conferences

CAUTHE 2015’s theme was Rising Tides and Sea Changes: Adaptation and Innovation in Tourism and Hospitality. Befitting such a theme, it was not surprising that sustainable tourism, climate change, destination management and innovation in hospitality featured strongly.

We are delighted to announce that CAUTHE 2016 will be hosted by the Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School from 8-11 February in Sydney. The conference theme is The Changing Landscape: The Impact of Emerging Markets and Destinations
