Summary
Mick Baron and Karen Gowlett-Holmes have been running the Eaglehawk Dive Centre on the iconic Tasman Peninsula since 1991. For decades one of the major attractions to the area has been the giant kelp forests. But over the years they have seen first hand the destruction of the giant kelp forests, a direct result of climate change. Dependent on Tasmania's giant kelp forests more than anyone, Mick and Karen have been instrumental in the efforts to research and rehabilitate these critically endangered ecosystems. With word spreading about restoration efforts, now the dive centre is increasingly receiving requests for people interested in diving on the restored reefs. In this short film, Mick and Karen take you on a journey through the day in the life of these highly accomplished Tasmanian dive shop owners. The film explores their personal reflections on the dramatic changes observed in the giant kelp forests within their lifetimes and their ongoing efforts to raise awareness to the issue and gain traction in the rehabilitation of these reefs.

Summary
The total tourism and hospitality experience consists of both products and services. Products are considered more tangible whilst services are intangible in nature. Up-selling is a marketing tool used in an attempt to have the consumer purchase more expensive items, upgrades, or other add-ons in an attempt to make a more profitable sale. In this programme we define a product, ask how a service differs from a product, examine the marketing concept and go through the process of upselling to add value and training staff to upsell. A valuable look at getting the most from products and services in this vital industry.

Summary
Hospitality is a service offered the world over. Sometimes the service you receive is good, other times it is bad. There are many reasons why the quality of service you receive can vary, however it usually comes down to one thing - teamwork. Hospitality isn't a solo act; it takes a team of individuals working towards one shared goal in order to produce excellence. Throughout this programme we discuss front and back of house team structures, teamwork in general, roles and responsibilities of team members, communication, and customer feedback. A brilliant introduction to the teamwork aspect that applies to every tourism & hospitality organisation.
