I am a Grading Assessor working in the West Rand. I would like to assist Tourism establishments in the area to get star graded. 

The Department of Tourism has introduced the Tourism Grading Support Programme to reduce the cost burden of grading by offering a discount of 80%. 

To apply for the 80% discount, please complete the online application on the Tourism Grading Council of South Africa (TGCSA) website
