In the first part, research has centred on detailed documentation regarding the entire Romanian tourism employment sector, and also the education system of tourism degrees, with a review of specialized literature consisting of books, journals, newspapers, as well as a series of laws, government orders or reports. In the second part, the study was completed with quantitative research based on intense online research (websites, forums), on processing in graphical representation the official statistics data made available by the National Institute of Statistics (NIS) and the Ministry of Education, Research, Youth and Sports (MERYS). The incompleteness of statistical information and data, however, made impossible a thorough quantitative research; mainly because of the fact that no public authority studied the tourism graduates insertion on the labour market after the `90s (‘H-R’ Fig. 1 Evolution of the ‘H-R’ employees number in Romania employment data are available up until 2009).

About 5500 B.C. the region was inhabited by Indo-European people, who in turn gave way to Thracian tribes. Today’s Romanians are in part descended from the Getae, a Thracian tribe that lived north of the Danube River. During the Bronze Age (about 2200 to 1200 B.C.), these Thraco-Getian tribes engaged in agriculture, stock raising, and trade with inhabitants of the Aegean Sea coast.

  • Trends in Adult and Continuing Education in Romania, a Country in Transformation
    Simona Sava Trends in Adult and Continuing Education in Romania, a Country in Transformation The Plan to market transition brought with it the restructuring of the labour market, but also unemployment, new job profiles, and ongoing reform of the education sys- tem. Within the catch-up process of joining the EU and harmonizing the legislative framework and developments with the aquis communautaire, the effort to set up and implement effective policies was relatively coherent. But the results achieved so far show that much more efforts are needed, as the participation rate of adults in educa- tion is still only 1.6 percent. Positive trends can be identified as well: a diversified range of institutions, a national system of quality assurance and of APEL (Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning), increased funds allocated in the last two years, and an increased awareness and know-how in the field of ACE1. 1. Looking back at the last two decades Romania is one of the largest countries to have joined the European Union recently, with about 22 million inhabitants. Since 1989, the year of the revolution that ended communist domination, the country is undergoing a transformation from a central- ized state communist society and ideology to a democratic pluralist one and mar- ket economy. This transition required the enablement of adults to cope with these changes, on the one hand. On the other hand, this transition meant the restructuring of the labour market since large industrial enterprises were closed down and many small and medium enterprises (SME) were set up. The closing down of the large, formerly state owned enterprises forced them to lay off large numbers of people.

    Tourism and Hospitality Management, Vol. 14, No. 1, pp. 115-128, 2008 A. Ispas: THE ROLE OF EDUCATION IN FOMANIA’S TOURISM SECTOR: FROM LEVEL… T.E.I. Thessaloniki UDC 338.48:378](498) Greece Review Received: 04.03.2008 Institut for Economic Promotion, Austrian Economic Chamber, Vienna, Austria Department of Tourism Management THE ROLE OF EDUCATION IN ROMANIA’S TOURISM SECTOR: FROM LEVEL DESCRIPTORS TO LEARNING OUTCOMES Ana Ispas Transilvania University of Braşov, Romania1 Abstract: Tourism is generally and globally acknowledged as one of the few economic sectors that has more than significant growth prospects and is characterized as a catalyst for peace and prosperity. At the same time, this sector is known for its high turnover of staff, persistent lack of qualified personnel and rapidly changing skill needs. If Romania wants to be a competitive tourist destination, we must assure a high quality of the tourism services and the people who deliver them. The most important labour shortage in Romania’s tourism is at the management level (top and middle management) and entrepreneurs. There are several reasons for this. For a long time, Romania’s tourist industry was dominated by large public enterprises. Most often, top and middle management were not appointed and promoted according to their education and capabilities, but according to other non-professional criteria. Education at all levels, especially higher education, has not been producing a competent labour force. Management education has been especially weak, with no specialized education for management in tourism. Some available programmes were of too general and with little practical training.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT The subject of this thesis is the development of a literary culture among the Romanians in the period 1829-1890; the effect of this development on the Romanians’ drive towards social modernization and political independence; and the way in which the idea of literature (as both concept and concrete manifestation) and the idea of the Romanian nation shaped each other. I concentrate on developments in the Principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia (which united in 1859, later to form the old Kingdom of Romania). I begin with an outline of general social and political change in the Principalities in the period to 1829, followed by an analysis of the image of the Romanians in European public opinion, with particular reference to the state of cultural institutions (literacy, literary activity, education, publishing, individual groups) and their evaluation for political purposes.
