Enhancing Regional Educational Standards: The Role of ASEAN MRA-TP Assessor Training
Since 2017, faculty members at NIDA’s Graduate School of Tourism Management (GSTM) have played a vital role in advancing the ASEAN Mutual Recognition Arrangement on Tourism Professionals (MRA-TP) in Thailand. This initiative, supported by three certified ASEAN Master Assessors and two ASEAN Master Trainers, focuses on standardizing tourism-related skills and qualifications across ASEAN member states. Through their efforts, NIDA’s faculty has contributed significantly to the mobility of tourism professionals in the region. By establishing common standards for education, training, and certification, these faculty members have ensured that tourism education is aligned with regional needs, creating opportunities for professionals to work across ASEAN countries.
