Education Tourism is forecast to show the strongest growth in tourism employment, leading to a significant demand for professionals compared to all other occupations.

Demand for transport and accommodation and transport services are also projected to grow strongly, and will generate high demand for intermediate production and transport workers and the advanced clerical and service worker occupation groups.
