Additionally, during the career fair some students received assistance from TAK staff in filling out application forms to study tourism programs at universities abroad.
Overall, the students showed great interest in visiting the TAK office for further assistance and advice, eager to deepen their understanding of tourism and the pivotal role TAK plays in the development of tourism in Kiribati.
