Metropolitan University Prague includes new skill profiles in the curriculum of university education for students and professional training for associations and business entities. Within the Norwegian Funds, the Metropolitan University of Prague and the Norwegian University of Stavanger realise a project focused on the innovation of the study of accessible and sustainable tourism. An ongoing project (2020-2023) addresses an important topic of accessible tourism. The collaboration leads to knowledge exchange, curricula and course development and learning for all stakeholders, and will impact both future education and research. 

At Metropolitan University Prague, several courses have been developed and innovated to raise awareness about issues relating to accessible tourism among tourism students. Learning more about accessible tourism and potential barriers to travelling can be one of the approaches. Other approaches could be to get students to practically plan tourist travel or a conference for a larger group of persons with reduced mobility. The teaching of accessible tourism does not exist to such an extent at any other university in the Czech Republic. Metropolitan university Prague´s students will have the opportunity to gain experience with the issue of people with disabilities. Graduates of the study program at MUP can use the knowledge of accessible tourism in their future jobs and contribute to the development of this socially responsible sector. The advantage of the proposed courses is the practically oriented focus of lectures and seminars. The courses are co-created and lectured by experts from Petra, o.p.s. This non-profit company has many years of experience with clients with disabilities.
