The technical team from the State Tourism Secretariat guided the work in the classes focusing on the quality of training for tourism professionals
A technical team from the State Secretariat of Tourism (Setur) is in the municipality of Muaná, on Marajó Island, to closely monitor the inspection and the qualification courses offered to the local community within the project "Training Professionals and Strengthening Tourism." The initiative is being carried out until December 29, in partnership with the Muaná City Hall and the Municipal Foundation of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, aiming to promote training and stimulate the economic development of the territory.
The team was in Muaná to inspect the classes and ensure the quality of the training directed at the formation of tourism professionals. The target audience is the community, starting from 18 years old. The courses are aimed only at evening classes and include a free kit with a booklet, bag, materials, and a shirt.
The program includes training focused on different areas of activity in tourism and the service chain, such as: Bartender with Basic English, Community Tourism Agent, Tour Itinerary Instructor, Housekeeping Course, Snack Bar Attendant, Kitchen Assistant, Pará Snacks, Regional Cuisine, and Digital Marketing and Social Media Management. The classes offer participants the opportunity to enhance their knowledge, acquire new skills, and strengthen tourist service in Marajó.
According to the Secretary of Tourism of Pará, Eduardo Costa, professional qualification remains one of the strategic priorities of the State Government. He emphasized the social impact of the actions. "Each course represents an opportunity for social and economic transformation. Professional qualification is one of the main tools to prepare the people of Pará for the growth of tourism and for the new job opportunities that arise throughout the tourism sector of the State," he states.
Student Gabriel Loureiro Ferreira thanked the teachers for the courses offered by the Government of Pará. "It has contributed significantly to our municipality of Muaná. These courses strengthen our tourism and further expand our professional qualification opportunities. We know how much this benefits our entire population, gratitude for the effort, dedication, and for sharing knowledge with such care," he said.
Student Diana Vale Farias highlighted the role of tourism in the municipality of Muaná. "The population is seeking, they are enjoying, the course is of extreme importance and is having a very good movement. Many people are coming to look for it, and after COP30 it was great to come here. We are being seen, we are being targeted, we will be contemplated with this course that is happening, may they continue to look after us here. They will see our tourism development, that we are from Pará and we have a lot to present, there is a lot here that is hidden, that is not visible, that is not known here in the municipality and by people from outside," she concluded.
