The Centre for Tourism and Leisure Services (TLS) is an academic community located at the King Campus of Seneca College and consists of

The Centre provides a direct path to a wide variety of exciting careers in a "mega-business" that involves the provision of tourism (encompassing travel, hospitality, and lodging), and leisure services (involving a myriad of recreation facilities, outdoor sites, programs and activities). We have designed our two-year diploma programs so that you can achieve two related college diplomas in a three year period. By earning two diplomas and participating in a greater number of work experiences in the three years through our co-operative education or required field placement programs, you will have a decided edge in your pursuit of a rewarding career in this exciting and challenging industry.

Industry trends now offer a wide range of opportunities that require you to have a broader range of recreation and tourism skills. Large recreation complexes and resorts, for example, seek graduates with knowledge and skills in both fields. The new TLS curriculum allows you to customize your learning to meet these new job market opportunities. We think you will find the dynamics and interrelationships of our programs within the Centre for Tourism and Leisure Services interesting and beneficial as you embark on your quest for an exciting and challenging career.

 
King Campus also offers several affiliated and rather unique programs for those who seek hands-on or physically demanding jobs in the great outdoors... 

Our Outdoor Resources academic cluster consists of 3 highly specialized, technical programs and a post-diploma, outdoor recreation program. Whether you aspire to work in the depths of our lakes and oceans, vast wilderness areas, national and provincial parks, camps, highly cultivated golf and country clubs or a heavily used community park, Seneca has a program for you.
