In this study, the management indicators of these trainings between the years 2020 and 2022 are described. The research approach is qualitative, it is field descriptive, the technique is documentary and the method of systematization is of educational experience. The instrument for data collection is the Socio-Community Linking Format . The sample is of intentional type, it includes 2518 participants trained through courses, workshops, forums, diplomas and projects; 450 institutions, including universities, tourism service providers, communities, tourism professionals and entrepreneurs at the national and international level.
