관광지는 왜 인증을 획득해야 하나요?

GSTC의 인정을 받은 인증기관으로부터 인증을 획득한다는 것은 해당 관광지의 운영이 시장에서 가장 높은 환경 및 사회적 표준을 준수한다는 것을 의미합니다. 여행과 관광의 폐해와 긍정적인 영향에 대한 대중의 관심이 높아짐에 따라, 인증은 복잡한 환경 및 사회적 문제에 대한 신뢰할 수 있는 해결책을 제공합니다.

인증서를 획득한 관광지는 인증서와 해당 인증서를 발급한 인증기관에 대한 정보를 자랑스럽게 표기합니다. 이를 통해 고객뿐만 아니라 다양한 이해당사자에게 관광지의 운영이 미래지향적이고 건전하게 관리되고 있음을 알릴 수 있습니다.  

어떻게 하면 인증을 받을 수 있나요?

GSTC는 인증을 받고자 하는 관광지를 지원할 수 있습니다. 인증을 신청하기 전에, GSTC 관광지 프로그램을 참조하세요.

인증을 받으려면, 관광지는 반드시 다음을 따라야합니다:

1 – 아래 목록에서 인증기관을 선택합니다.

2 – GSTC가 요구하는 모든 요건을 충족하게 되면, GSTC 인정인증기관으로부터 인증을 받게 됩니다.

여기에 나열된 인증기관은 관광지를 인증할 수 있도록 GSTC로부터 인정을 받았습니다. GSTC로부터 인정을 받은 인증기관과 인증서 소유자는 (GSTC와의 라이센스 계약이 완료되는 즉시) GSTC 로고를 표시할 수 있습니다.
