Vocational Pathway Assessment Resource Achievement standard: Standard title: Level: Credits: Resource title: Resource reference: VP- Vocational pathway: Learner instructions Introduction This assessment activity requires you to demonstrate understanding of ways in which being can change, and strategies to support the well-being of a tourism worker. You are going to be assessed on how comprehensively you demonstrate understanding of the effects of the change on the well-being of a tourism worker, his and others’ consequent feelings (positive and negative) and possible responses, along with strategies to support their well-being during the change. The following instructions provide you with a way to structure your work so you can demonstrate what you have learnt and achieve success in this standard. Assessor/educator note: It is expected that the assessor/educator will read the learner instructions, and modify them if necessary to suit their learners. Task You are training in adventure tourism which involves working with many extreme sports. While working in this industry people often experience situations in which their well-being can change, for example seasonal employment. Your supervisor has asked you to demonstrate your understanding of ways in which can change and strategies to support well-being by reading the scenario below about Jackson and completing the activities that follow. Jackson was a keen adventure junky: a seasoned surfer, extreme mountain-biker, and enthusiast. He wanted to pursue his passion for high octane thrills as a career and so when he scored an internship with an adventure tourism company in Queenstown over the summer he couldn’t believe his luck. It would be his first time living away from home; he didn’t know anyone in Queenstown and had never been to the South Island before. He had to organise flights and accommodation and found a fairly cheap room at the local YMCA. He was already hoping that the internship would develop into a paid position. Finally the day came, and he arrived at Queenstown airport. The company had sent their courtesy van to meet him and a young woman got out of the driver’s seat and introduced
