In Crimea last year, 637 tour guides and guide-translators were certified

This is the result of systematic work. Because in Crimea, the training of guides and their training according to professional standards did not stop, unlike most subjects of the Russian Federation. We have regions where for 30 years there were no courses for guides, everyone forgot about them, but in Crimea, systematic work began at the university in 1974, and it never stopped. Therefore, this is the result of truly systematic worksaid the interlocutor.

According to Ekaterina Lukyanenko, now on the peninsula 70% of certified guides combine the work of a guide during the summer season with other professions and areas of activity. However, about a thousand more remain uncertified for various reasons.

If a specialist wants to work as a guide, as soon as he took the microphone, he said “Hello, I am your guide,” he must present his badge, badge, and must pass certificationsays the speaker.

It is noteworthy that among the professional guides and tour guides of the peninsula, seven taxi drivers officially have an accreditation document in Crimea.

These are people with higher education, who have worked in tourism and have been certified at a high level. Having a lot of travel experience, in comparison with many other colleagues in the taxi fleet, ours are at their best. They tell and do not confuse Chatyr-Dag and Ai-Petri, Kerch with Feodosia— said the interlocutor.

Accreditation for the profession of “tour guide,” according to an associate professor of the Department of Tourism at KFU, will not be difficult if you have the appropriate education.

It is absolutely transparent, everything is clear, the interface is convenient. Attach documents, press the right buttons — everything seems to tell the applicant what to do next— said the guest of the broadcast.
