The three-year Erasmus+ programme project, initiated on 1 September 2023, is coordinated by University College Prague, a higher education institution in Czechia, in collaboration with four partners. The project aims to revolutionise higher education in hospitality and tourism by incorporating virtual reality to enhance educational methods and tools. Key anticipated outcomes include the development of three educational modules, a methodology for their application, and the participation of at least 100 students and 12 teachers in the pilot implementation of these modules.
