The First Computer-based Tour Guide Qualification Examination Held in Guizhou

 

Date of Release: November 22, 2015

 

On November 21, the 2015 paperless examination for tour guide qualification in Guizhou was carried out in 18 test centers of 9 cities across the province. There are a total of 6,244 test takers for the exam, a record high in the history of this exam. This is the first time that the computer-based tour guide qualification exam was held in Guizhou. ATA provided the technologies and delivery services for this exam.

 

 

Mr. Yu Ling, Deputy Director of Guizhou Tourism Bureau, said during the exam that as a key part of professional teams in the touring industry, tour guides play a vital role in presenting touring products and services. They are not only the brand image of a city and the provider of high quality services, but being the ones who interpret and spread the culture of tourism. As of the end of 2014, there were 12,769 certified tour guides in Guizhou, but it can hardly meet the needs of the local touring industry – for instance, lacking of qualified tour guides was still a big problem during this summer holiday. Thanks to the growing demand of the market, a large population was attracted to attend the qualification exam, setting the record in the number of test-takers. This will actively enhance the morale and spirit of tour guides for the province.

 

The computerized exam technology and services provided by ATA have won high applauses from the Guizhou Tourism Bureau and the test-takers, who agreed that the computer-based tour guide exam can ensure the objectivity and fairness in the exam, outperform the traditional exam in improving working efficiency, saving test resources and standardizing test management, and is the future trend of the development of tour guide qualification exam.
