What's on City of Melbourne


Melbourne Tourism Industry Leadership Program

The Melbourne Tourism Industry Leadership Program (MTILP) facilitated by Destination Melbourne and proudly supported by the City of Melbourne was launched in Melbourne in 2009.

MTILP is a well designed and professionally delivered educational training program, created specifically for developing leadership potential in Victoria’s tourism industry.

Unique to Australia, MTILP is an innovative program that fills a niche for specialised training of Victorian tourism industry employees with demonstrated leadership potential.

Raising the professional standards of Victoria’s tourism industry is a primary aim of MTILP. The strategic goals of the program are to:

  • prepare and coach participants toward executive level and leadership roles
    provide practical learning opportunities
  • foster collective leadership in the Victorian tourism industry
  • dovetail with Victoria’s Tourism Excellence program; and
  • demonstrate a commitment to sustainability, innovation and entrepreneurship within the tourism sector. 

The goals are delivered through 10 full day workshops conducted over a nine month period.

Applications for the 2011 intake open from 28 October 2010. For further information please visit Destination Melbourne.
