Benchmarking the Egyptian Tourism Higher Education Scheme

This research is part of an ongoing process of full innovation of the higher education scheme in Egypt under the supervision of the Egyptian National Council for Education Quality Assurance. As an initial step, the research focuses on benchmarking the Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) and tourism courses provided in Egypt against those recommended by a highly recognized entity, the British Quality Assurance Agency (BQAA). The research aims to identify the gaps between the two models, which should then facilitate resetting the ILOs and tourism courses in Egypt to meet standards that are more advanced.
