Abstract

Thanh Hoa is a location with great potential for tourism development, particularly in Vietnam's cultural history. In the past, cognizant of the potential and benefits of tourism, Thanh Hoa province set the objective of developing tourism to become a spearhead economic sector to create a driving force for socio-economic development and to gradually make the province one of the localities in the country with the most developed tourism sector. In addition to the accomplishments, community-based tourism in Thanh Hoa still has numerous challenges and constraints regarding planning, infrastructure, facilities, and product diversification. Training and development of tourism's human resources is a challenge that must be addressed in both the short and long term. This paper analyzes the current status of developing human resources in community-based tourism, offering specific solutions to boost human resources in community-based tourism in Thanh Hoa province in the coming years.
