THE-ICE Webinars

THE-ICE Webinars

THE-ICE Webinar Series was created to support our member institutions through the uncertainty of the pandemic and its impact on the global TH&E industry. As our industry starts to heal, THE-ICE continues to offer the Webinar Series as an opportunity to discuss, connect, and collaborate with institutions facing similar challenges around the world. Members are also given the chance to interact directly with THE-ICE Executive Team, ask questions, and learn of the important updates happening within THE-ICE.

Please note that attendance at and participation in THE-ICE webinars is for representatives of THE-ICE member institutions only. However, recordings of these webinars will be made available here after the event.

Webinar 10: 30 Minute Talks: Surviving COVID – What Can Institutions and Educators offering Hospitality Do Now?

Even with a vaccine, the reality is that COVID-19 is going to be with us for a long time to come. Not only have hospitality, tourism and events industries been the most impacted, but so has tertiary education. The reality is that there will be ‘New Normals’ for both education and the hospitality & tourism industries – and these will not look like the ‘Old Normal’ of 2019. Looking to the future, how can members of THE-ICE be better prepared for the coming changes?
