  The Tourism Living Lab pedagogical concept, which connects theory and practice, has been co-created to support holistic learning process. As the result there is always a tourism industry based commission or commissions which is/are the starting point for the designing and developing profitable tourism services/products. The study unit is closely linked with tourism marketing and e-commerce related studies as well as operational management in tourism.
  Due to the multi-method pedagogical approach various pedagogical methods, such as lectures, visiting lecturers, workshops, practical projects and learning assignments e.g. a reaction paper and/or exams, practical sustainable pricing and profitability related calculations are used in the study unit. The specified timetable of the learning process of approximately eight weeks is planned together with the working life and given at the beginning of the study unit. Tutoring and multi- stakeholder assessment of the learning process take place throughout the study unit according to the assessment criteria.
