The six-day programme was designed to upgrade the skills of the participants drawn from the Ashanti region to ensure excellence in their service delivery.
Miss Appiah-Kusi urged operators of tourist facilities to adhere to the operational requirements of the GTB before, during and after the tournament to retain the nation's image.
