Travel & Tourism Collaboration Event

Travel & Tourism students took part in an exciting cross-college collaboration between Bradford College and Northampton College, giving learners access to live virtual presentations from leading employers in the sector. Using Class View technology, students engaged directly with industry professionals, gaining valuable insights into careers, expectations, and pathways within travel, aviation, and hospitality.

Today’s guest speakers included:

  • Mike Lawson from Skypeople,
  • Virgin Atlantic Cabin Crew
  • Simon Kocsis from Jet2 
  • Representatives from the Hilton Hotel chain 


This collaborative model creates shared access to external employers, expanding opportunities for students who may otherwise not have the chance to engage with such a diverse range of industry professionals. By pooling resources across colleges, learners benefit from richer experiences, broader insights, and enhanced preparation for their future careers.

Sarah O’Connell, Lecturer said “When colleges collaborate, opportunities multiply. Today our students didn’t just hear about the industry, they connected with it.”
