Abstract(s)
A área das competências e a área de turismo, remetem para conceitos para áreas de constante mudança e adaptabilidade, promovendo a necessidade contínua de estudos sobre as mesmas. O presente estudo empírico de carácter exploratório, contudo igualmente explanatório e transversal, visa compreender a perceção de estudantes e profissionais sobre a importância das competências na área de turismo. Foi necessário contextualizar estes dois constructos e compreender a sua história e definição. Após a compreensão de cada um, o processo passa por interligar os dois – através de perfis de competência da área. Para complementar este mesmo, ainda realizar uma revisão de literatura relativo às diferentes perceções de estudantes e profissionais nesta e em outras áreas. Após este enquadramento, para alcançar resultados, a metodologia utilizada foi do tipo quantitativo. Os participantes que constituem a amostra deste estudo, são os alunos de licenciatura de Turismo e Gestão Hoteleira da Universidade Europeia e profissionais da área de turismo em Portugal, pertencentes a várias entidades. Sendo que o estudo contou com um total de 228 participantes. Através desta foi possível concluir que existem diferenças significativas nas perceções, contudo de forma geral, todas as competências estudadas foram consideradas importantes.
