In addition to the industry speaker sessions, a panel will hear from recent graduates working in the Northern Ireland travel and tourism sector and an interactive careers fair will be held, with local travel businesses, agencies, operators and airlines showcasing job opportunities to students.
Future You co-founder Danny Waine said: "I’m absolutely delighted to be announcing our expansion into Northern Ireland. The team at Belfast Met College are the perfect hosts for our first Future You event in Belfast.
"They share our passion for the industry, enthusiasm and desire to inspire the next generation of travel and tourism professionals. This event will stretch the imagination and ambitions of all students who attend."
Waine said one of the goals for the Future You Foundation for the 2022/23 academic year was to expand its reach across the UK and to include events in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Announcements on host venues in Scotland and Wales will follow soon.
