Travel and Tourism Certificate Program

The Travel and Tourism industry is one that is continually developing. The Travel and Tourism certificate is a travel counselor or airline agent-focused program. Emphasis is placed on technical, destination geography sales and marketing. With consultation of the department head, students will have the ability to design the area of focus through the two hospitality/tourism electives. For more information contact Maryanne Adams at or 603-271-6963. Some courses are only available evenings. Financial Aid eligibility is pending. To be eligible for federal financial aid, students must submit an official, final high school transcript, or the equivalent documentation that demonstrates high school completion, to the NHTI Admissions Office.
