Qualification With A Focus On Inclusion
The training is aimed at all profiles but pays special attention to women in vulnerable situations.
This action is the result of a partnership between the state government and the Women of Brazil Group, coordinated by Chieko Aoki of the Blue Tree Hotels network, and Luiza Helena Trajano, president of the Board of Directors of Magazine Luiza.
The classes will be supported by Senac São Paulo, which will issue certificates at the end of the courses. The City Hall of Osasco and Cioeste (Intermunicipal Consortium of the Metropolitan Western Region of São Paulo) also participate, reinforcing the regional commitment to social and economic development.
Courses Focused On Hospitality
The Housekeeping course covers techniques, procedures, and excellence in service. The Excellence in Hospitality Service course focuses on preparing professionals to work with the public in hotels, inns, and other areas of tourism.
According to Roberto de Lucena, Secretary of Tourism and Travel of the State, the design of the courses stems from direct dialogue with the sector. “We talk to the tourism sector to find out what they need at the moment and have monthly discussions with the 25 partners of the Academy to inform us about which courses are available. This way, we connect workers to the market,” he explained.
The initiative reinforces the presence of women in tourism, a sector where they are already the majority. According to the Ministry of Labor, 55% of professionals in the area are women.
In the state of São Paulo, there are 31,000 women in formal activities related to tourism, compared to 25,000 men, according to Caged data.
Regional Support For Tourism
Cioeste, which brings together municipalities in the region, strongly supports the courses. For Luiz Américo Liza Junior, coordinator of the Tourism Technical Chamber, the sector depends on sensitive and prepared human resources.
The classes will take place at Avenida Marechal Rondon, 263, in downtown Osasco. There will be classes in the morning and afternoon, with schedules organized by month.
