Here's a simple way to understand what you'd learn in a Travel and Tourism diploma, and if it's more about learning facts or doing things:

• You'll also get to practice things like booking tickets, making reservations, running tours, helping customers, and using the computer systems that travel companies use. You might even get to do internships or go on trips to see things for yourself!

• These courses are really designed to help you get a job in the travel world. They give you the experience you need to start working.

• Some courses will teach you specific areas like planning events, managing hotels, or adventure travel. That's how you can choose your field of interest. 

• You'll often learn about managing hotels, how to market tourism, and even how airlines work. The focus is always on getting you practical skills and real-world experience through internships and actually doing things.

Here's a simple breakdown of how you might get into a travel and tourism Diploma course:

• IGNOU Entrance Test: If you want to study tourism through the Indira Gandhi National Open University (which is mostly learning from home), you might need to take their special entrance test.

• JET: If you're in Punjab and want to get a Diploma in hotel management or tourism, you'll probably need to take the Joint Entrance Test by the Punjab government.

• IIHM Entrance Exam (e-CHAT): If you're looking at the International Institute of Hotel Management, they have their own entrance exam called e-CHAT, which covers both tourism and hotel-related diplomas.

• AIMA UGAT: A Few colleges that offer diplomas in hotels and tourism can accept scores from the All India Management Association's undergraduate test (UGAT).

• College-Specific Exams: Many private colleges and universities, like Amity, Christ, and LPU, often have their own entrance exams or interviews to decide who gets in.

Keep in Mind:

• Most private colleges usually just look at your marks from 12th grade and might have a short interview with you.

• Right now, there isn't one big national exam that everyone has to take for these Diploma courses.

• If you're thinking about a government-run college (like a polytechnic) in your state, they might have their own entrance test.
