Keeping up with an evolving industry
School of Tourism and Hospitality Split (TUŠS) has always focused on modernizing education but struggled to provide effective remote learning when it was needed.
This was especially true for the essential hands-on experience of practical learning, whether organized within school or through internships.
With the investment in new teaching facilities and plan for a new educational hotel, TUŠS saw a need for a more modern system that prepares students for a digital workplace.
Advanced digital learning
TUŠS decided on a multifaceted solution, made possible with EU funding from the European Social fund.
The solution included an eLearning platform with easy internship management, a hotel management system with an integrated booking site, and VR tools for practical learning in cooking and hospitality.
For content, they partnered with renowned publisher Školska Knjiga, while trusting Gauss to handle all technical aspects of the project.
Thanks to our diverse technical expertise, TUŠS was able tu successfully finish the ambitious project, improving tourism and hospitality education for generations to come.
