Reports indicate that this avenue of tourism shows the greatest future growth potential for Newfoundland and Labrador and much of its success will be determined by the competance of those guides to whom this is entrusted. Not only will those aspects of safety, professional skills, and hospitality be demanded, as in the consumptive disciplines of guiding, but also the more difficult concepts of attitude, knowledge and communication. The greatest future growth potential in Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism is the Adventure Tourism area. For those preferring the traditional consumptive areas of Fishing and Hunting, the better operators and organizatons in the province are looking for guides who have actual training and proof of their qualifications. Graduates will not only easily compete for longer, better paying employment in these areas, but will also possess the skills to start their own enterprises if they choose.
Graduates can work in other areas as well as becoming Hunting, Fishing or Adventure Tour Guides.
They can also seek employment as camp operators, camp operations managers or gain employment with any groups or organizations requiring the professional services and variety of skills necessary to operate comfortably in a wilderness setting.
