    fun and get ahead at the same time. At BASE ‘Camp’ we

   Banff is a one-industry town. The Tourism Hospitality

    business drives our economy. Banff is also a town of

    turnover  – so opportunities for advancement abound.  If

    you have the training and skills, you can get a better job,

    make more money and get unstuck.

   Tourism in Canada offers rewarding and challenging

    careers. Employment opportunities are as diverse as the

    industry itself. For individuals with the appropriate skills,  

    knowledge and attitude, hospitality tourism can offer

    mobility.  Mobility for some can mean working in different

    parts of the globe, within the tourism industry, across

    various sectors of the Canadian economy or movement

    through entry level, supervisory, and management           

                                                                                      positions to executive positions.
