During the Creative Teaching Labs, professors, lecturers and instructors will present, share and discuss different learning and teaching techniques as well as innovative pedagogical approaches tailored to today's and tomorrow's generations of students taking programs in hospitality and tourism.

Many ITHQ students will also be on site for all three days to welcome the 450 conference registrants. Overall, more than thirty people from the ITHQ will be attending this international event.
