New Zealand School of Tourism is the country's largest private tertiary establishment that specialises in training programmes for the airline, travel, and tourism industries. The New Zealand School of Tourism Ltd (trading as New Zealand School of Tourism) started as Travel Careers & Training in 1985 with one campus in Wellington. Several years later they opened a second campus in Auckland before purchasing Sir George Seymour College in 2006. This gave the company seven campuses and it has since grown to eight campuses throughout New Zealand.
