Beautiful Finland

It is always very nice to visit Finland. Every year it gets better.
This time I have been invited to contribute to two distinct events:

*** The kick off Meeting of IFITT Finland Chapter, where the topic was eLearning in Travel and Tourism [here below my presentation].

eLearning in Travel & Tourism from inversia

*** The Finnish National Summit for Tourism Education, where I engaged in a presentation about the future of tourism education [here below my presentation].
