About Us
::: Tourism Education Excellence
The Tourism Management Institute of Singapore (TMIS) was officially launched on 16 November 2000. It was previously the Centre for
Tourism-Related Studies (CTRS) established in 1987. TMIS is a 100% owned subsidiary of the National Association of Travel Agents Singapore (NATAS).
The corporate mission of TMIS is to upgrade the professionalism, service and productivity of the travel and tourism industry. In addition to providing training for our industry members, TMIS is also now actively providing tourism courses and training to the public in Singapore.
Since our inception, we have trained more than 40,000 students for the tour and travel industry. We offer a wide spectrum of tourism courses, from certificate to diploma, which are accredited nationally and internationally by established educational institutions.
TMIS is also the first National Continuing Education and Training Institute (NCI) for Tourism Workforce Skills Qualification (WSQ) in Singapore to provide reality education for the Attractions, Tour & Travel Services and Hotel & Accommodation Services sector. We are also the approved training centre by Singapore Tourism Board (STB) for the Tourist Guide Course.
::: TMIS Expanding Regionally
In 2002, TMIS started receiving international students from Asia-Pacific. This is in line with our corporate mission to provide tourism education and training to students from other countries. Tourism is a lucrative industry which many countries are competing to develop. This has opened up and will continue to breed more career opportunities in the industry in Singapore and around the world.
With 23 years of experience in the travel and tourism industry, TMIS is more than equipped to provide training for these international students and staff of the travel industry.
With our students coming from Malaysia, Indonesia, India, Myanmar, Cambodia, Vietnam, Korea and China, we have been called a ‘Mini-United Nations’. To ensure our continuing value and relevance, TMIS will adopt a more regional perspective in our strategic goals and establish ourselves as the leading tourism training institute in the region.
