“The visitor economy is evolving rapidly, and workforce capacity and capability is more important than ever. I’m looking forward to contributing insights from Noosa’s operators and helping shape the future of tourism training in Queensland.”
Anthony’s appointment supports Tourism Noosa’s commitment to building a resilient, future-ready workforce to meet the needs of our local tourism industry.
