Course objectives
The aim of the course is to provide basic theoretical training for the application of cultural heritage presentation and education in regional practise, specifically in cultural tourism. Using the example of creation of a specifically assigned leisure product on a cultural-historical topic (short excursion/trip), students will learn the principles of an interdisciplinary approach to the assignment, get involved in the creation of subsegments, test their interpretive skills and competencies for individual and team work. During the course, they will gain a specific insight into product preparation techniques, destination selection and organisational and technical aspects of product arrangement. They will master the basics of topographical and chronological preparation and settings of contract conditions for providing individual services. They will become familiar with price calculation of a tour, stages of preparation of a tour guide, accounting, and evaluation of realised products.
