As tourism in El Salvador continues to thrive, it’s fueling new investment projects aimed at preparing locals for careers in the sector. One major initiative is the Escuela Especializada en Hostelería y Turismo (Estur), a new institution with a $15 million investment, offering a curriculum tailored to market demands.
Initially launching online, Estur plans to open its campus in the San Salvador Metropolitan Area later this year. The school aims to train highly skilled professionals to deliver world-class service in hospitality and tourism.
“This project not only dignifies the work of our youth but also contributes to the development of El Salvador and other countries through strategic partnerships,” said Gabriela Joachin, Estur’s executive director.
