Another ambitious enterprise is a course being developed for childcarers working in tourism, such as ski nannies. Chiltern College is joining forces with Nannies Abroad to create the Certificate of Childcare in Travel and Tourism. Kate Beith, head of the college, said it would be taught over a minimum of 40 hours and would be 'delivered by experienced childcare trainers in an interesting balance of lectures, workshops and active learning'. Ashanti Dickson, managing director of Nannies Abroad, said she became aware through running her other business Snowkidz of a severe lack of training in the travel industry. The course could be tailored for the needs of a particular tour operator, she said, but students who had completed it might enjoy 'better pay and prospects when they return to the UK'. For information ring her on 01962 881 188.
