Polish Tourist Voucher<\/a> programme.<\/p>\r\nA crucial aspect involved the declaration of cooperation on undertaking diverse initiatives and informational and promotional campaigns, involving tourist information points and aimed directly at market stakeholders. Number one on the list of POT\u2019s essential and fundamental projects of this kind, the Polish Tourist Voucher is intended to reinforce the tourism industry and national economy.<\/p>\r\n
The annual Tourist Information Forum meeting also acted as an opportunity to sum up this year\u2019s projects and introduce successive actions and campaigns meant to build up Poland\u2019s image and tourism sector.<\/p>\r\n
The session involved 120 representatives of certified tourist information points and centres from all over the country.

President of POT emphasised the need to strengthen POT\u2019s cooperation on communication in the domestic market, which next year will be subject to increased activity during the pandemic and its gradual slowdown. Polish Tourism Organisation will modernise ICT tools and digitalise mobile tourist information as part of expanding the Polish System of Tourism Information at home and abroad.<\/p>\r\n
Vice President Anna Salamo\u0144czyk-Mochel also confirmed POT\u2019s openness to cooperation with certified tourist information points and centres, with particular emphasis on promoting the Polish Tourist Voucher project. She highlighted the relevance of close cooperation supporting tourism businesses when implementing the programme in question. She informed FIT participants about the planned amendment of the act on Polish Tourist Voucher intended to achieve greater consistency between provisions defining \u201ctourist events\u201d. Salamo\u0144czyk-Mochel also ensured that progress is being made on expanding the scope of accommodation variants, optimally convenient functionalities and on facilitating Voucher project registration.<\/p>\r\n
Maciej Malski, Director of POT\u2019s Branch Office, presented the latest data on implementing the Polish Tourist Voucher project and the degree of its utilization in particular regions. He argued that activation of the programme\u2019s promotion is significant for reaching successive recipients, also in cooperation with tourist information centres.<\/p>\r\n
In the course of the General Meeting, Marcin Pa\u0142ach, Chairman of FIT\u2019s board, presented a report on its 2020 operations and discussed proposed strategies of FIT\u2019s next year actions undertaken in cooperation with POT.<\/p>\r\n
Jacek Janowski, Director of POT\u2019s Department for the Promotion of Domestic Tourism, covered completed actions related to the process of tourist information\u2019s e-certification, which updated the regulations and criteria of standardising tourist services for particular ratings (one to four stars) awarded to tourist information points to be certified in 2021. A new mobile application will be applied for the purposes of next year\u2019s competition for Poland\u2019s top tourist information centre.<\/p>\r\n
In addition to intriguing discussions, informative speeches and diagnoses, the agenda of FIT\u2019s meeting also encompassed a training panel.<\/p>\r\n
The General Meeting participants had an opportunity to exchange good practices on tourist information operations in Croatia Tourism. Last but not least, they learnt more about the sector\u2019s framework in the tourism-specific integrated qualification system involving the Educational Research Institute and about the \u201cTurystyka w mig\u201d project for hard of hearing travellers.<\/p>\r\n
