This has since opened up and will continue to breed more career opportunities in the industry in Singapore and the world. In line with our corporate mission, the institute provides tourism education and training to those who aspire to join the travel and tourism industry.  Tourism Management Institute of Singapore (TMIS), a wholly owned subsidiary of National Association of Travel Agents Singapore (NATAS), formerly known as the Centre for Tourism-Related Studies (CTRS) was established in 1987 to upgrade the professionalism, service and productivity of the travel and tourism industry.
