Abstract

The research aims to shed light on the importance of activating the National Qualifications Framework by making a comparison between the community college system in the United States of America, especially the tourism and hotel programs at the University of Florida, and the technical and technological tourism and hotel education system in Egyptian technological colleges. The research problem was represented in the existence of a quantitative and qualitative gap between the forces of supply and demand in the Egyptian tourism and hotel labor market. The research was based on two main hypotheses: restructuring the Egyptian technological education system contributes to reducing the gap between the requirements of the tourism and hotel labor market and the outputs of technical and technological education, and the ability of the Egyptian technological education sector to absorb the experience of American community colleges in line with Egypt's Vision 2030. The research community was represented by faculty members in the faculties of hotel and tourism services at Egyptian technological universities and American community colleges. The field part was applied to a random sample of (80) individuals, at a confidence level of 95% and an allowable error in estimation of ±5%.The research presented a model for a plan to improve education and training programs in technological colleges for tourism and hotel services affiliated with Egyptian technological universities, which would increase the quality of outputs in terms of knowledge and skills, contributing to meeting the requirements of the Egyptian tourism and hotel labor market.
