MGM, Macau Government Tourism Office (MGTO) and the Oral History Association of Macau jointly launched the “Community Outreach eLearning Programme– Introductory Series of Macau History & Culture” on Wednesday.
Through a fun and engaging form of eLearning, the programme aims to enhance residents’ and tourism industry practitioners’ local historical and cultural knowledge, so that they are empowered to promote and share the stories of Macau with tourists and as a result, elevate their overall tourism experience.
The launch ceremony took place at MGM Cotai on Wednesday, where Macau Polytechnic Institute (IPM) School of Humanities and Social Sciences Director Lam Fat Iam, who is also the trainer of the eLearning programme, led the “MGM National Education Series Seminar of Stories of Macau World Heritage Tourism” and shared insights of the history and world heritage of Macau with over 200 participants from MGM, industry peers, as well as various higher education institutes and relevant associations.
Having partnered with MGM and Macau Deaf Association to jointly launch the sign language eLearning programme to the public last year, this year MGTO once again worked with the industry on this endeavour.
To join the eLearning programme, simply go to the Macao Tourism Industry Net on http://industry.macaotourism.gov.mo to access the “Community Outreach eLearning Programme– Introductory Series of Macau History & Culture”.
