They will explore the role of different consumer technologies within the travel and tourism industry. Learners will understand the different types of tourism and different types of visitor andwill investigate the features of and routes to popular tourist destinations.  \nComponent 2: Customer Needs in Travel and Tourism  \nLearners will investigate how organisations use market research to identify travel and tourism trends and identify customer needs and preferences. They will apply their understanding by exploring how specific needs are met by organisations and how travel planning meets customer needs and preferences.  \nComponent 3: Influences on Global Travel and Tourism  \nLearners will explore the different factors that may influence global travel and tourism, and how travel and tourism organisations and destinations respond to these factors. Learners will examine the potential impacts of tourism at global destinations and how destinations can manage the impacts of tourism and control tourism development to achieve sustainable tourism.  \nWhy choose Travel and Tourism?  \nThis qualification is for learners interested in taking a hands-on course alongside their GCSEs that will offer them a practical introduction to life andwork in the dynamic travel and tourism industry, allowing them to make an informed decision about their future learning and career.  \nThis course will give learners the opportunity to develop sector-specific applied knowledge and technical skills in a practical learning environment. They will develop key transferable skills through vocational contexts, by exploring products and services offered by different travel and tourism organisations, the features of popular tourist destinations, how organisations use market research and trends to identify and meet customer needs requirements, and the factors that influence global travel and tourism. The qualification enables learners to develop their transferable skills, such as researching, planning, and making decisions and judgements.  \nThis BTEC Tech Award complements the learning in GCSE programmes such as GCSE Geography and GCSE Business by broadening learners’ experience and skills participation in different contexts, with opportunities for them to practically apply knowledge and skills. Following successful completion of this qualification, learners can progress onto A Levels, or to a vocational qualification at Level 3, such as a BTEC National in Travel & Tourism.  \nAssessment overview  \nComponents are interrelated and best seen as part of an integrated whole rather than as distinct study areas.  \n\n| Component | GLH | Qualification\u003Cbr>weighting | Marks\u003Cbr>available | Type of\u003Cbr>assessment | Length of\u003Cbr>assessment | Availability |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Component 1: Travel and Tourism Organisations and Destinations | 36 | 30% | 60 | Internal\u003Cbr>assessment\u003Cbr>(PSA*) with 5 tasks.
