L-ITS, l-iskola ewlenija f’Malta għall-istudji tat-turiżmu u l-ospitalità, ħabbar li ta ħin żejjed lill-istudenti potenzjali biex japplikaw għall-korsijiet tagħhom. Id-data l-ġdida għall-għeluq tal-applikazzjonijiet issa hija l-Ħadd, 17 ta’ Awwissu 2025. Dan ifisser li jekk forsi kellek xi diffikultà biex tlesti l-applikazzjoni tiegħek jew jekk għadek qed taħseb x’se tagħmel wara l-iskola, għad għandek ċans. Għaliex L-ITS Estenda d-Data? Il-motivazzjoni ewlenija wara din l-estensjoni hija r-rispons pożittiv ħafna li rċieva l-kors tal-gwidi turistiċi. Iktar minn 80 applikant irreġistraw din is-sena, ċifra li hija d-doppju ta’ dik tas-sena l-oħra. Din iż-żieda qawwija tista’ tiġi konnessa ma’ liġi ġdida tal-gvern li tgħin lill-istudenti. Issa, anke jekk għadek qed tistudja, tista’ tikseb liċenzja proviżorja biex tmexxi tours minn April sa Ottubru. Dan jagħti lill-istudenti l-opportunità li jaħdmu u jaqilgħu l-flus waqt li jkomplu bl-istudji tagħhom, u fl-istess ħin jiġbru esperjenza prattika prezzjuża. X'Nista' Nistudja fl-ITS? L-estensjoni tapplika għall-korsijiet kollha offruti mill-ITS. Ma jimpurtax jekk tridx issir chef (Arti Kulinari), tippjana avvenimenti (Ġestjoni ta’ Avvenimenti), taħdem fil-lukandi (Ospitalità), jew tgħin biex it-turiżmu jkun aktar sostenibbli (Ivvjaġġar li jirrispetta l-Klima). L-ITS joffri korsijiet minn livell bażiku (Foundation) sa Master's. Għalhekk, hemm programm għal kulħadd, anke jekk m'għandekx kwalifiki tal-iskola għolja daqshekk tajbin. Kuntest It-turiżmu huwa wieħed mill-pilastri ewlenin tal-ekonomija Maltija. L-ITS, li ilu jeżisti mill-1987, għandu l-għan li jipprovdi lill-industrija b’ħaddiema mħarrġa tajjeb. Minħabba li s-settur turistiku jinbidel kontinwament, l-istitut irid jaddatta ruħu biex jilħaq il-ħtiġijiet tal-lum. L-introduzzjoni ta’ liġijiet ġodda biex jgħinu lill-gwidi turistiċi żgħażagħ hija eżempju wieħed ta’ kif il-gvern qed jipprova jappoġġja l-industrija u lill-istudenti Maltin. Impatt fuq Malta Din id-deċiżjoni tal-ITS mhux biss tagħti aktar ħin lill-istudenti biex japplikaw, iżda wkoll turi l-impenn tal-istitut li jattira aktar nies għas-settur tat-turiżmu. It-turiżmu huwa kruċjali għall-impjiegi u l-ġid f'Malta, u billi jagħmlu l-korsijiet aktar aċċessibbli, qed jassiguraw li jkun hemm biżżejjed talent lokali biex l-industrija tkompli tirnexxi. Il-liġi l-ġdida għall-gwidi turistiċi żgħażagħ hija spinta qawwija li tiġġenera interess, partikolarment fost iż-żgħażagħ, u tgħinhom jibdew il-karriera tagħhom kmieni. Dan il-pass jista' jwassal biex iżid in-numru ta' gwidi Maltin kwalifikati, li hija xi ħaġa pożittiva għall-kultura u l-wirt tagħna. X’Tista’ Tagħmel Int Jekk taħseb li t-turiżmu jew l-ospitalità jinteressawk, u għadek ma applikajtx, għandek ftit ġimgħat oħra biex tagħmel dan. Mur fuq is-sit uffiċjali tal-ITS (www.its.edu.mt) u ara l-korsijiet kollha. Jekk m'intix ċert liema kors hu tajjeb għalik, tista' tikkuntattja l-uffiċċju tal-gwida tal-karrieri tagħhom għal parir.

Mistoqsija: Għaliex hu importanti li l-gwidi turistiċi jkunu Maltin? Tweġiba: Il-gwidi Maltin ħafna drabi jistgħu joffru perspettiva unika u personali tal-istorja u l-kultura ta’ Malta. Huma jifhmu l-mentalità u t-tradizzjonijiet lokali aħjar minn ħaddieħor, u dan jgħin biex l-esperjenza tal-vjaġġaturi tkun aktar awtentika u speċjali.

ITS, Malta's leading school for tourism and hospitality studies, announced that it is giving prospective students extra time to apply for its courses. The new application deadline is now Sunday, August 17, 2025. This means that if you had trouble completing your application or are still thinking about what to do after school, you still have a chance. Why Did ITS Extend the Deadline? The main reason behind this extension is the very positive response the tourist guiding course received. Over 80 applicants registered this year, a figure that is double that of last year. This strong increase can be linked to a new government law that helps students. Now, even if you are still studying, you can obtain a provisional license to lead tours between April and October. This gives students the opportunity to work and earn money while continuing their studies, and at the same time, gain valuable practical experience. What Can I Study at ITS? The extension applies to all courses offered by ITS. It doesn't matter if you want to become a chef (Culinary Arts), plan events (Events Management), work in hotels (Hospitality), or help make tourism more sustainable (Climate-Friendly Travel). ITS offers courses from Foundation level up to Master's level. So, there is a program for everyone, even if you don't have the best high school qualifications. Context Tourism is one of the main pillars of the Maltese economy. ITS, which has been around since 1987, aims to provide the industry with well-trained workers. Because the tourism sector is constantly changing, the institute must adapt to meet today's needs. The introduction of new laws to help young tourist guides is one example of how the government is trying to support the industry and Maltese students. Impact on Malta This decision by ITS not only gives students more time to apply but also shows the institute's commitment to attracting more people to the tourism sector. Tourism is crucial for jobs and wealth in Malta, and by making courses more accessible, they are ensuring there is enough local talent for the industry to continue to succeed. The new law for young tourist guides is a strong push that generates interest, especially among young people, and helps them start their careers early. This step could lead to an increase in the number of qualified Maltese guides, which is a positive thing for our culture and heritage. What You Can Do If you think tourism or hospitality interests you and you haven't applied yet, you have a few more weeks to do so. Go to the official ITS website (www.its.edu.mt) and look at all the courses. If you are not sure which course is right for you, you can contact their career guidance office for advice. Fact Check * Verified Fact: ITS has extended the application deadline for the 2025-2026 academic year. * Verified Fact: The new deadline for applications is August 17, 2025. * Verified Fact: The number of applicants for the tourist guiding course has increased significantly. * Non-Factual Statement: All courses at ITS are free for Maltese and EU students.

Question: Why is it important for tourist guides to be Maltese? Answer: Maltese guides can often offer a unique and personal perspective on Malta's history and culture. They understand the local mindset and traditions better than anyone else, and this helps make the experience for travelers more authentic and special. It's like having an insider show you the secret spots and tell you stories you won't find in books. Conclusion The extension of the ITS application deadline is good news for those considering a future in the tourism and hospitality industry. It is an opportunity for many people to enter a sector that is vital for our country. This step also shows how local institutions are adapting to encourage more interest and investment in the future of tourism. How will the interest in these courses continue to grow, especially those that offer early practical experience?
