Chris Kempczinski, president of McDonald’s USA, speaks at the unveiling of McDonald’s new corporate headquarters during a grand opening ceremony on June 4, 2018 in Chicago, Illinois. The company headquarters is returning to the city, which it left in 1971, from suburban Oak Brook.Scott Olson | Getty Images The $1,200 stimulus checks sent out to Americans in April helped lift sales for struggling restaurants and retailers, and the Paycheck Protection Program sent funding to nearly 700,000 businesses, including McDonald’s franchisees.Kempczinski also said he hopes that the next administration will look for solutions to some long-term issues, like climate change and making sure jobs and education provide opportunity for everyone.McDonald’s is open to discussing the minimum wage, he said. The national minimum wage has held steady at $7.25 per hour for more than a decade. The Fight for $15 and a Union, which is made up of fast-food workers, has been pushing for a $15 minimum wage for years, with scattered success.- Advertisement – – Advertisement – McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski told CNBC he hopes President-elect Joe Biden will tackle some of the country’s biggest problems, including the fallout from the coronavirus pandemic.“We need a stimulus measure, I think that is very clear,” he told CNBC’s Carl Quintanilla in an interviewed that aired Tuesday on “Squawk on the Street.”Democrats and Republicans have failed to reach another stimulus package, leaving millions of unemployed workers and struggling businesses in the lurch. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said he wants a deal passed tis year, but his proposal is much lower than what Democrats are seeking, and it’s not clear if an agreement will actually happen.- Advertisement –
Most recently, Florida voted to increase its wage floor over the next six years until it reaches $15 an hour. It is the eighth state to approve a $15-an-hour minimum wage and the second-most populous state to do so.Kempczinski also acknowledged that some of the Trump administration’s proposals helped McDonald’s and aligned with its beliefs. For example, the company benefited from its corporate tax cuts.But Kempczinski is not expecting the Biden administration to change everything. He’s predicting that the joint employer rule will remain unchanged. Under the rule, someone who works for one company can also be considered employed by another company. But the National Labor Review Board said last year that the rule does not apply to McDonald’s for its franchised restaurant workers. The decision was a big win for McDonald’s, which has argued that it should not be held responsible for any labor violations of its franchisees.Shares of McDonald’s were down slightly Tuesday. The stock, which has a market value of about $165 billion, has climbed 8% this year. – Advertisement –
Should the vaccine be approved early in 2021, the most at-risk parts of the population would get inoculations first. Once that process begins, the economic healing can accelerate, Mericle wrote.“But the path is likely to be bumpy as virus resurgence puts the brakes on the recovery this winter before the vaccine effect triggers reacceleration next spring,” he said.Unemployment to plungeAs the year progresses, Goldman forecasts hiring to accelerate, with the current 6.9% unemployment rate to fall to 5.3% by the end of the year.That’s contingent on the likelihood of some type of additional fiscal stimulus from Congress – likely around $1 trillion under the expected divided government scenario and $2.5 trillion should the Democrats unexpectedly win contested Georgia elections and take over both the House and the Senate.“The economy is likely to reaccelerate next spring as mass immunization fully reopens the high-contact consumer services that account for most of the remaining output gap,” Mericle said. “This should fuel a mid-year consumption boom as restored opportunities to spend allow households to substantially lower their saving rates and spend accumulated excess savings.”The Goldman analysis notes that consumer spending already has recovered to 98% of its pre-pandemic level, while business bankruptcies have been less thanks to government support programs. Housing also is expected to continue its recovery though durable goods consumption could slow.However, the firm said implementation of the vaccine – others are in late-stage trials as well – should get consumers back to engaging in activities like going to restaurants and other high-contact activities.“While the path ahead is likely to be bumpy, we expect mass immunization to largely complete the reopening process and trigger a reacceleration next spring that will leave full-year growth well above expectations,” Mericle wrote. “Once virus fears are largely out of the way, demand for most high-contact consumer services should quickly rebound to pre-pandemic levels.”Goldman does not expect the rebound in activity to trigger Federal Reserve action.With the central bank’s commitment not to raise rates until inflation is consistently above 2%, Goldman sees no increases until early 2025. From there, it expects raises of 50 basis points per year until the benchmark short-term borrowing rate hits around 2%-2.5% from its current anchor near zero. Indeed, the pandemic’s toll has swelled in recent weeks, with new cases eclipsing the 150,000 mark on Thursday and poised to continue rising as winter weather sets in. Few states have enacted major restrictions yet, but are more likely to do so as the virus spreads.On the upside, hopes for treatment received a major boost this week when Pfizer reported that its Covid-19 vaccine showed a better than 90% success rate.- Advertisement – Traders work at Goldman Sachs booth on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange in New York.Scott Eells | Bloomberg | Getty Images “The pace of recovery is likely to get worse before it gets better,” Goldman economist David Mericle wrote in a report. “Fiscal support has largely dried up for now, leaving disposable income lower in the final months of the year. But the largest risk is that the third wave of the coronavirus is likely to worsen with colder temperatures.” – Advertisement – Goldman Sachs sees a prosperous 2021 but is cautious about the bumpy road the U.S. economy will ride before it gets there.In a forecast that is well above Wall Street consensus, the bank’s economists see gross domestic product accelerating at a 5.3% pace next year, considerably stronger than the 4% median forecast from the Federal Reserve.However, the firm sees a number of obstacles along the way, particularly the damage that quickly accelerating coronavirus cases will have on the recovery.- Advertisement – – Advertisement –
Mar 19, 2007 (CIDRAP News) – Health experts gathered today at a World Health Organization (WHO) conference in southern Turkey to discuss findings in patients who have H5N1 infections and identify areas for future research on treatment, according to news services.The meeting, a follow-up to one held in Hanoi in 2005, is intended to seek support from doctors for a proposed WHO system for collecting data on H5N1 cases, Canadian Press (CP) reported. Doctors would be asked to submit standardized clinical information on their patients who have H5N1 infections, which would allow the WHO to track disease patterns and treatment efficacy, the report said.”This will give us, I think, the best available opportunity under the current circumstances to make sense out of what’s happening,” Frederick Hayden, MD, a WHO influenza expert, told CP.Some health experts who attended the meeting said they supported Indonesia’s stance on withholding H5N1 samples until it receives assurance that it and other developing nations will have access to pandemic flu vaccines, according to a Reuters report.Menno de Jong, a virologist at an Oxford University clinical research unit in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, told Reuters that though sharing viruses is vital to improving diagnostics, clinical care, and vaccine development, vaccine sharing is also important. “I think the point is well taken from the Indonesia experience that there should be some guarantees for countries affected by H5N1 that they will also share in the vaccines produced,” de Jong told Reuters.
C difficile is the second most common and troublesome nosocomial infection, raking right behind methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), she said. In 2007, APIC commissioned a similar hospital snapshot study of MRSA, which she said was a wake-up call for health officials that triggered increased attention and resources needed to slow rising illness rates. In the past 5 years, a more virulent, antibiotic-resistant strain of C difficile has evolved, known as the North American pulse-field type 1 (NAP1). Kathy Warye, APIC’s chief executive officer, told reporters at a press conference today that the study is the first to reveal the true magnitude of C difficile infections in hospitals. The survey represents a 1-day snapshot of all patients with C difficile infections in 648 participating hospitals. The pathogen causes diarrhea and other, more serious intestinal problems. Based on extrapolation of the results to the entire US inpatient population, the APIC authors estimated that on any given day, 7,178 patients have C difficile and an average of 301 die of it. They project that these cases lead to an average of 40,197 extra hospital days and about $32.1 million in healthcare costs. William Jarvis, MD, principal investigator for the study and president and cofounder of Jason and Jarvis Associates, a healthcare epidemiology firm, told reporters previous studies on C difficile rates were incidence studies based primarily on patient discharge data. For example, he said two earlier studies revealed 60 and 76 ill patients, respectively, per 10,000 discharges. Nearly 90% of the patients were diagnosed by enzyme-linked immunoassay for A and B toxins rather than by culture, which Jarvis said points to a lack of capacity to isolate the organism and determine how many cases are caused by the drug-resistant NAP1 strain. A hard-to-kill bugJarvis said study has several practical implications for infection control specialists. The spore-forming form of C difficile is one of the more difficult organisms to kill, as bleach is the only cleaner that can kill it, he said. However, only 65% of the survey participants said they used bleach to combat C difficile outbreaks. APIC published an executive summary of the survey on its Web site, and Warye said the complete report will appear in an early spring issue of the organization’s journal, the American Journal of Infection Control. The previous studies are limited because they captured only a small amount of data over a long period of time, he said. Jarvis said the current survey gauges prevalence and was able to capture detailed clinical information that helped reveal patterns about the patients’ illness. APIC members were asked to collect data on all of their patients with C difficile patients on one day between May and August 2008. The survey covered 12.5% of all medical facilities in the United States and reflected broad patient populations. Jarvis and his colleagues found that 13 of every 1,000 patients covered in the survey were either infected or colonized with C difficile, for a total of 1,443 patients. Most (94.4%) were infected. Nov 11, 2008 (CIDRAP News) Clostridium difficile, rapidly gaining as a source of hospital-acquired infections, is sickening from 6 to 20 times more patients than previously thought, according to a survey released today by the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC). Of the group, about 85% were hospitalized for other conditions, and about 68% had comorbid conditions such as renal failure or diabetes. “C difficile isn’t just a surgical disease,” Jarvis told reporters. Nearly 80% of the patients had been on antibiotics before they got sick with C difficile; in 17% of the cases, the antibiotics were for preventing surgical infections. Executive summary of APIC’s C difficile survey Nov 11 APIC press release Also, more “antibiotic stewardship” programs are needed to reduce antibiotic use in hospitals, he said. The survey showed only 50% of facilities have such programs. “We’re hoping that this will be a call for action, not just for infection control experts but also hospital administrators who are in position to provide the resources,” Jarvis said. “We need a bundle of practices, not just one.” For hand hygiene, he said alcohol gels won’t kill C difficile spores, and vigorous hand washing with soap and water is needed to remove them. “Studies like this can be very powerful. The time for action in now,” Warye said, speaking from an APIC conference on C difficile in Orlando, Fla. The organization also released a guide for eliminating the organism, which will be published tomorrow on APIC’s Web site. See also: Infections can be fatalC difficile is a gram-positive bacteriumtransmitted by hand contact with objects contaminated with fecesthat causes diarrhea and potentially fatal conditions such as colitis, toxic megacolon, and sepsis, according to APIC. Infections are associated with previous antibiotic use and are most common in older patients and others who have been in hospital, nursing home, or other healthcare settings. Over the past 30 years the pathogen has emerged as one of the leading causes of infections acquired in healthcare settings. Illness patterns emergeDetailed data were provided for 1,062 patients, which Jarvis said revealed some notable patterns. For example, 54% were diagnosed with C difficile infection within 48 hours after hospital admission, which initially suggested some had acquired the infection during a previous hospital stay or in the community.
In other developments, the TDHS said on Feb 20 that it had taken over the recalls of products shipped from PCA’s Plainview plant because the company quit responding to its recall requests. On the same day, PCA issued a statement saying that it could take no further action on recalls, because its chapter 7 bankruptcy filing on Feb 13 prohibited the company from communicating with customers. Feb 20 Texas Department of State Health Services press release Details about shipping of peanuts from PCA’s Blakely, Ga., plant to its Texas facility have not yet been spelled out in investigative reports. However, a Jan 19 e-mail from PCA President Stewart Parnell to another employee, made public during a Feb 11 hearing of the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, indicates that some raw peanuts from the Georgia plant were shipped to the Texas plant. On Feb 12 the TDHS ordered PCA to recall all products shipped from the Plainview plant since it opened in 2005, after finding that facility’s unsealed ventilation system was pulling debris such as rodent excrement from a crawl space onto production areas. Craig Hedberg, PhD, a foodborne disease expert at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, told CIDRAP News that shipment of peanuts from the Georgia plant to the Texas plant would provide “a nice direct pathway for contamination.” “Our lab determined that it is the outbreak strain of Typhimurium. We don’t know what that means yet,” he said, adding that the TDHS was looking for evidence that peanuts were shipped between the two plants. The plants are more than 1,100 miles apart, the Morning News reported. Doug McBride, spokesman for the Texas Department of Health Services (TDHS), said yesterday that peanut meal sampled from the Plainview plant on Feb 12 tested positive for Salmonella Typhimurium, according to a report today from the Dallas Morning News. Meanwhile, the number of people sickened in the outbreak has risen to 666 in 45 states, according to an update yesterday from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The latest known disease onset was Feb 3. Though the CDC classified the outbreak as ongoing, it said the number of new cases has slowed moderately since December. In his e-mail, Parnell wrote that he believed the raw peanuts from the Georgia would be cooked, processed, and further tested at the Texas plant. Earlier this month the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said it found the Salmonella Typhimurium outbreak strain in an opened jar of peanut butter that a Colorado patient had bought from Vitamin Cottage Natural Foods, which made the product from peanuts it received from PCA’s plant in Plainview. “In terms of our overall understanding of the nature of the problem, it adds a nice piece to the puzzle,” Hedberg said. Parnell wrote that trucks containing about 43,000 pounds of raw peanuts had been shipped to the Plainview plant. “Obviously we are not shipping any peanut butter products affected by the recall but desperately at least need to turn the raw peanuts on our floor into money,” he wrote. “We have other raw peanuts on our floor that we would like to do the same with.” Parnell wrote the e-mail while FDA officials were conducting their investigation of PCA’s Georgia plant. Feb 25, 2009 (CIDRAP News) – More evidence that the Salmonella strain responsible for a nationwide outbreak was present in two widely separated Peanut Corporation of America (PCA) facilities surfaced yesterday when Texas officials announced they had found the contaminant in a product from PCA’s Plainview, Tex., processing plant. Feb 17 CIDRAP News story “FDA reports Salmonella in peanut butter tied to Texas plant” See also: House Energy and Commerce committee link to Jan 19 Stewart Parnell e-mail The TDHS said it was notifying manufacturers, distributors, and retailers it believed received products from the company in 2008, though some had already issued recall notices. Also, the agency said it hoped to locate customer lists from previous years in PCA’s records. Feb 24 FDA Salmonella recall update The number of product recalls continues to grow and has reached 2,670, according to an update yesterday from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
With the project of Diocletian’s Palace made of chocolate, Kraš transformed the top art of its masters into a product, which will participate in the most beautiful way in creating memories of one of the oldest and most beautiful cultural monuments in Croatia.Diocletian’s Palace made of chocolate, as a unique souvenir, a small but beautiful and sweet contribution to the rich Croatian, and thus European heritage.The Chocolate Palace was built according to the original shape of the palace from the year 305.The reconstruction of the model is based on sixty years of scientific research work by the architect Jerko Marasović (1923-2009). His daughter, the architect Katja Marasović, made a detailed design on the basis of which the sculptor Frane Šitum made a model. The model of Diocletian’s Palace was cast in white chocolate weighing 330 grams, while the box contains a bilingual booklet in Croatian and English, which, along with photos and floor plan, provides detailed information on the history and shape of the Palace.In the meantime, there is no need to worry about it. ”After a “walk” through the chocolate Diocletian’s Palace, the sweetest part follows – enjoying the taste of premium chocolate. A cool and interesting story, and certainly a unique souvenir and reminder of Croatia and Split. I am sure that most chocolates will end up as a souvenir, which will stand in a visible place in the homeland of our tourists and thus convey the story of our tourism throughout the year, which gives the whole story added value.</p>
Soon, instead of the previous five counties, ie five tourist brands and products, Slavonia will finally operate on the market as one tourist brand – Slavonia.Namely, an Agreement on cooperation in the creation and promotion of the tourist brand “Slavonia” was signed in Osijek today.It is an agreement that includes activities for the development of strategic marketing documents intended for the joint promotion of the Slavonia Tourist Cluster in the period from 2019 to 2025 and which aims to increase the visibility of Slavonia as a year-round tourist destination.The agreement was signed by Minister Gari Cappelli on behalf of the Ministry of Tourism, Director of the Croatian Tourist Board Kristjan Staničić and representatives of the Brod-Posavina, Osijek-Baranja, Požega-Slavonia, Virovitica-Podravina and Vukovar-Srijem counties. “The balanced tourist development of Croatia, and thus the continent as an integral part of the overall tourist offer of Croatia, is one of the main goals of this Government. This agreement is the first step towards the realization of the potential that Slavonia as a tourist destination has and the recognition it more than deserves. I would like to emphasize that in the last three years we, as the Ministry of Tourism and the Croatian Tourist Board, have already invested 37 and a half million kuna in tourism development through various grants to strengthen competitiveness, develop tourist infrastructure and develop cyclo-tourism on the continent. Apart from this project, in the future we will continue to provide support to Slavonia through our programs that are intended to strengthen the competitiveness of the tourist offer and thus further encourage the development of Slavonia as a year-round destination.” Minister Cappelli pointed out on the occasion of signing the Agreement on Cooperation in the Creation and Promotion of the Tourist Brand “Slavonia”. “The development of the Strategic Marketing Plan of Slavonia Tourism with the branding plan will enable faster and better activation of untapped tourism potentials of the Slavonia Cluster and effective marketing and communication activities in this area, so we have provided HRK 612.500,00 for the project this year and next. Our main task is to tell the world the story of Slavonia, but also of other continental parts of Croatia that should be responsible for the development of year-round tourism. pointed out the director of the CNTB, Kristjan Staničić, adding that this year the CNTB supported 93 tourist projects in the area of Slavonia with an amount exceeding 3,7 million kuna.During his stay in Osijek, Minister Cappelli also met with Osijek-Baranja County Prefect Ivan Anušić, with whom he discussed tourism projects in Osijek-Baranja County and the possibilities for further development of tourism in the Slavonia cluster. Mayor Ivan Anušić emphasized the potential for the development of Slavonia in terms of tourism.”This is the first time that the Minister of Tourism is coming to Osijek and the tourism of Slavonia is being seriously discussed. It is a confirmation that the time has come for the system to start dealing with the framework of tourism development in this area. That is why we need a thoughtful direction and strategy. We are ready to learn and we are aware that nothing will improve overnight, but we must start planning tourism together. It is indisputable that Slavonia has a lot to offer, natural beauty, health tourism, rich gastronomic culture, wine producers, and most importantly – we want our producers to produce eco products and healthy food for tourist services.” He said Anusic.Slavonia tourism marketing plan strategy Last week, at the 37th session of the Tourist Board of the CNTB, the members of the Council made a decision on cooperation and co-financing of the relevant documents “Strategy of the marketing plan of Slavonia tourism with the branding plan” of the Slavonia cluster (Vukovar-Srijem, Osijek-Baranja, Virovitica-Podravina -Slavo and Brod-Posavina counties) and the subject document “Tourism Development Strategy of the Imotski Region Tourist Board of Imotski.The story of Slavonia began to unfold as it had always been. Development strategy, one band, the arrival of travel agencies to finally start selling Slavonia in various markets, because the continent does not have a secure “base” of tourists as a sea destination, and lacks tourists as well as tourist spending, UHPA Days in Slavonia 2019… all It is part of the Initiative to hold the Days of Croatian Tourism in Slavonia, which will, however, still be held unofficially in 2019.Related news:GOLDEN PEN / “SLAVONIA – THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CROATIAN SECRET” PROCESSED FOR THE BEST FOREIGN REPORTING IN THE PRINT MEDIAHOTEL SLAVONIJA IN VINKOVCI AFTER RENOVATION CATEGORIZED WITH THREE STARS, ANNOUNCED AND NEW MILLION INVESTMENTS
On June 20, Instagram hosted a special event that celebrated 1 billion users on their platform. In addition to paying tribute to this great milestone in the company’s history, Kevin Systrom, Instagram’s director, announced IGTV (Instagram TV).IGTV is a new option on the Instagram app that allows users to post longer videos. Unlike before, when Stories could be loaded for up to 15 seconds and videos lasting up to one minute, IGTV videos can last up to an hour. At first, just bigger influencers will be able to upload video content for an hour, while the rest of the users will be able to upload videos up to 10 minutes long. In the future, Instagram plans to allow everyone to post videos of unlimited duration.Basics of IGTVIGTV is included in the existing Instagram app, but can also be downloaded as a standalone app. As its name suggests, the idea behind IGTV is to replace television in the future.U press releases, Instagram states that IGTV, just like regular television, immediately starts releasing content without having to press a tag play. You don’t have to specifically look for the content of profiles you already follow and others you might like according to your interests.IGTV was designed primarily for mobile devices, and the content comes in full-screen vertical video format. The videos are vertical for a reason, because they are recorded with a mobile phone and the produced content is more real and less edited or edited.How to use Instagram TVAs already mentioned, all users can upload video to IGTV. Before uploading a video, you need to create a channel for your account. To upload a video, click on the “+” on the right. During video upload, you can add a title and description for each video. You can also create and thumbnail in .jpg format to make your profile look more organized and professional. Already recorded videos must be in .MP4 format, in a width to height ratio of 9:16.Please note that as with YouTube, you should use relevant keywords. Other users will find your videos easier if you use popular and more important keywords.After you post the video, you will see a ““ ”button next to the options like, comment, share on which you can check video statistics. You can check analytics such as views (unfortunately anonymous), retention rate and the like. You can also copy the link for your video or delete it.When you watch other people’s videos, you also have options for selecting content by categories: “for you”, “follow”, “popular”, and “keep watching”. In addition, you can like, comment and send videos to your friends in direct messages. If you follow someone on IGTV, follow their Instagram profile and vice versa.The future of videoThe main idea IGTV is to produce longer-format shows in the future with presenters who will rethink the whole concept of traditional television and even YouTube. Instagram currently has every right to challenge traditional media based on data on how much time is spent watching videos on Instagram and the general popularity of videos on mobile devices.Despite this, IGTV has been available for three weeks now and although there are many influencers already tried the new option, it is difficult to find a channel that has used up the whole hour available to them. Most videos are 5-10 minutes long and show content similar to the content mentioned influencers publish on Stories and YouTube.The biggest problem of IGTV that is predicted in the future is that there is currently no way to make money through this platform. The service does not include ads and Instagram has announced that it will not pay for content on its platform. It will be interesting to see how much it will influencer stay true to IGTV if there are no cash fees. A similar thing is happening with Facebook, which is still developing a reward system for the most popular content creators. The creators are still updating their Facebook pages, but not with the original content, but with links to their YouTube videos. YouTube, although recently criticized for demonetizing large amounts of content, still has a large number of loyal users who manage to earn a living via YouTube affiliate program.IGTV offers great opportunities for branding especially in the field of tourism. Caterers can use this format to present their interior in a creative and interesting way, introduce their companions to their employees, show all the advantages of their accommodation over others and the like. Restaurants can easily make short videos where they prepare their main dishes and thus invite potential guests to their restaurant. Instagram TV videos can also be used for short travelogues or guides to popular tourist destinations.It will be interesting to follow the development of this new platform and where it will take us. It’s hard to say whether they will be able to fully achieve what they set out to do on Instagram, but we hope that as many users and brands as possible will create new, creative and original video content. The possibilities are, as on other social networks, countless and perhaps this is the platform that will set your business apart from others and make you stand out among similar companies in tourism.Author: Rebecca Danko, ForgeBIT.com
A new study program Sustainable Agrotourism was presented, which will be implemented by the Polytechnic of Rijeka in the fall, and which will be realized in cooperation with the Center for Agriculture and Rural Development of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, as well as 30 family farms from PGZ.The study Sustainable Agrotourism belongs to the field of biotechnical sciences, lasts three years (six semesters), and will be performed in Rijeka. After completing the undergraduate professional study Sustainable Agrotourism and achieving 180 ECTS credits, students acquire the professional title: professional bachelor (baccalaureus) engineer of sustainable agritourism.The Dean of the Polytechnic said that this higher education institution has been successfully implementing the study program “Mediterranean Agriculture and Winemaking” in Poreč for many years, which was attended by many successful Istrian winemakers and olive growers today. The Sustainable Agrotourism program was purposefully created based on the experiences of the owners of agrotourism farms not only in Istria and PGC, but also in neighboring Italy and Slovenia. “In the preparation of this three-year undergraduate study program, the County has given support from the beginning because it is a study that connects on the one hand an underdeveloped rural area with strong tourism in PGC.”, Emphasized the Deputy Prefect of PGC Petar Mamula.The Polytechnic of Rijeka is starting to enroll full-time and part-time students in the new undergraduate professional study program Sustainable Agrotourism, which will be launched in the upcoming academic year 2018/2019. Applications for the undergraduate professional study Sustainable agritourism in the first grade are submitted in person or sent by registered mail from July 2, 2018 to July 23, 2018, au II. classification deadline (if there are vacancies) from September 4, 2018 to September 7, 2018. For the part-time study Sustainable Agrotourism, 10 enrollment places have been opened.Attachment: Competition for enrollment in the first year of the undergraduate professional study Sustainable Agrotourism RELATED NEWS:SURVEY / KEY OBSTACLES TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF AGRO TOURISM IN THE SPLIT-DALMATIA COUNTY
