Hotel School still has vacancies in three courses

A Voz de Trás-os-Montes12 September 2026 at 14:37

The Douro-Lamego Hotel and Tourism School still has vacancies available in three courses for the next academic year. The available training pathways are Hotel Management and Accommodation, Restaurant and Beverage Management, and Bakery and Confectionery Management and Production, all lasting one academic year and including a final internship.

Students in the Tourism of Portugal Schools network benefit from a set of support measures, which include accommodation for displaced or international students, free meals, international mobility Erasmus+ scholarships, recognition of merit and excellence, and access to qualification opportunities. These measures aim to facilitate access and retention of students in training.

The school also highlights the employment results of the network, citing the 2025 Professional Integration Study. According to this study, 92% of graduates are working or pursuing further studies six months after completing their training. Among employed graduates, 87% work in the sector they specialized in and 71% found employment in less than one month.

The school director, Miguel Duarte, states that the training is distinguished by its strong practical component, proximity to companies and internship opportunities in national and international settings. Applications run until September 16, and further information can be obtained from the Douro-Lamego Hotel and Tourism School or through the Tourism of Portugal Schools network.

Why this matters

Young people and professionals in the Trás-os-Montes region who wish to join the Tourism, Hospitality and Restaurant sector have until mid-September to apply for courses with a strong practical component and high employability rates, in a context where the sector continues to grow. The school's proximity to the local business community and the financial support measures facilitate access to training for populations in an inland region of the country.

Tunisian olive oil pressures Portuguese market and Extremadura wants to block duty-free entries

The entry of Tunisian olive oil at reduced prices is exerting high pressure on the Portuguese market, with the GPP warning that national producers face difficulties in covering production costs. Extremadura asked the Spanish government to bring to Brussels the review and possible suspension of the inward processing regime that allows olive oil imports without payment of customs duties. Official data shows that Spain imported in the last five months more olive oil from Tunisia than Extremadura produces in an entire year, with 76.3% of these entries benefiting from the customs regime in question. The Alentejo, the country's main producing region, could be directly affected by any decision from Brussels.
