In light of repeated reports of temporary certificates being issued to learners (based on course completion) by a number of institutions implementing the course, we would like to inform you that in order to avoid parallel work, all of the aforementioned certificates are considered by the administration to be legally invalid and that certificates issued by the central education organization must be cited and approved.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the circular number 1393\/902 dated 10\/6\/88 of the Education Planning Office, all holders of tourism educational certificates (technical management of travel service offices, Iran tour and tourism guides, nature tourism and hotel management) of the Technical and Professional Organization are not exempt from attending classes at institutions licensed by the Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization, and applicants for tourism certificates must attend courses at institutions licensed by the Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization.<\/span><\/p>\n

* According to educational directives, the acceptance requirement for graduates of tourism management and other similar fields in the comprehensive technical management exam for travel service offices is to obtain a minimum GPA of 12 and a score of 12 in the comprehensive specialized language exam. The quorum for all courses is 10 out of 20.<\/span><\/p>\n

Based on the decisions made by the Educational Council of this office regarding the participation of students and graduates of tourism majors in the comprehensive exams at the end of the technical management courses, Irantour and tourism guides, and nature tour guides, students and graduates can participate in the comprehensive exams a maximum of three times, consecutively.<\/span><\/p>\n

After that, if the learners fail all or one of the courses, the course will be considered a failure and the learners must re-register and, after completing the course and passing the comprehensive exam, obtain a certificate related to the technical management course, Iran tour and tourism guides, and nature tour guides.<\/span><\/p>\n


* According to the decisions made by the Educational Council of the Tourism Education Office, all those interested in participating in technical management courses, Irantour and tourism guides, and nature tour guides, if they wish, can participate in all courses and receive the above certificates, but they are only allowed to use one of the certificates for employment and cooperation with tourism centers.
*<\/span><\/p>\n

Students interested in taking tourism training courses can participate in training courses, as well as a comprehensive exam and interview, by presenting the original certificate of employment stamped with the university seal, and at the end of the course, receive a temporary certificate valid for 2 years.
It should be noted that a temporary certificate is issued only once for each learner, and it is obvious that upon presentation of the original academic certificate, appropriate action will be taken towards issuing a certificate of completion.
Providing these facilities to students is solely related to the training office, and issuing the aforementioned certificate is merely a means of completing the training course, and in no way will it be possible to use the temporary certificate for the purpose of issuing a guide card and introducing as a technical manager.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
