Scholarships, Fellowships and Short Courses that offer the next generation of global leaders an opportunity to undertake short-term study, research and professional development opportunities in support of key development and foreign affairs priorities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The Short Course award recipients received their graduation certificates before networking with key Australian tourism experts at the Southport Yacht Club.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">One of the course recipients, Ms Devika Saelen \u2013 the Head of Operational Excellence at Serendib Leisure Management Ltd \u2013 says the Sustainable Tourism Development Program is a step in the right direction for the tourism industry in Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">\u201cI would say it is certainly a very positive and significant step in fostering collaboration and synergies between the industry and government bridging the prevailing disconnect, bringing us together hopefully as one voice, as the voice of tourism,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">\u201cIt has been an incredible experience with a wealth of learning and exposure for all of us and I feel quite privileged to be a part of it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The first component of this Short Course was a pre-reading and program orientation conducted via webinars in Sri Lanka in February.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-25436 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Sri-Lankan-tourism-representatives-farewelled-at-the-Gold-Coast3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"151\" \/>The final component following the Australian study tour was a post-course program in Sri Lanka, which gave recipients the opportunity to focus on the implementation of their Return To Work plans in Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The Australian study tour helped the group develop their Return To Work plans through educational visits to leading tourist destinations in Queensland including the Sunshine Coast and Far North Queensland, before finishing with a trip to the Gold Coast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">From site visits to the Noosa Spit Recreation Reserve and the Daintree Discovery Centre to Tourism Planning Symposiums with the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.qtic.com.au\/\"

between the two countries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The representatives from Sri Lanka had a non-stop schedule, visiting a variety of key sites such as the Mungali Creek Dairy &amp; Cheese Factory, The Temple of Hou Wang and the Mossman Gorge Rainforest Centre, where they furthered their understandings of cultural heritage tourism and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">While in Far North Queensland, they also visited the outer Great Barrier Reef, exploring one of Australia\u2019s most iconic tourist locations while learning about reef management practices in Australia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The final week of the program concluded with a tourism symposium held at Griffith University at the Gold Coast, where various key industry representatives attended as panel members, providing experience-driven knowledge to the participants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Mr Noel Scott, the Head of the Griffith Institute for Tourism, was the panel chairman, sitting alongside representatives from the Gold Coast Tourism Corporation and Economic Development and Major Projects as well as the City of Gold Coast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-25437 alignright\"

\/>Presentations by representatives from key tourism organisations including Tourism Research Australia, Get Wet Surf School and National Park Products also took place, giving the group further insights into the tourism industry in Australia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Aligning with Sri Lanka\u2019s 2017-2020 Tourism Strategic Plan, this program hopes to help achieve the United Nations\u2019 Sustainable Development Goals by the year 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Mrs Deelia Rochelle Pietersz, the Head of Operations at Ceilao Adventures (Pvt) Ltd, was one of the representatives from Sri Lanka\u2019s private sector who took part in the program.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Mrs Pietersz said the study tour was \u201ca marvellous knowledge-sharing experience\u201d, which she looks forward to implementing in her work back in Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">\u201cThere was so much we learnt about tourism in Australia, especially in Queensland,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">We look forward to going back to Colombo to see how we can change the tourism industry of Sri Lanka, not only for my company\u2019s benefit but, of course, for the Sri Lankan economy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The group from Sri Lanka flew back to their home country on March 31, taking back valuable insights about Australia\u2019s tourism industry to create lasting, beneficial impacts as well as strong industry networks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The\u00a0<em>Australia Awards Sustainable Tourism Development in Sri Lanka<\/em>\u00a0Short Course will help key representatives from Sri Lanka\u2019s tourism sector gain essential teachings around tourism management to help spread economic benefits and further employment opportunities in Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span
