PREFACE
In a bid to efficiently address the various problems plaguing the organization of national examinations in Cameroon, The Department of University Accreditations and Quality (DAUQ), considering its duties as provided for in Decree No. 2012/433 of 1 October 2012 to organize the Ministry of Higher Education (MINESUP), under the leadership of the Minister of Higher Education, has embarkedon a series of reforms to substantially improve the organization of these examinations through the National Commission for the Organisation of National Examinations (CNOENC). In this respect, the registration process has been computerized, with amongst other advantages, the possibility for external candidates to pay national examination fees across the national territory thanks to the partnership with a company offering services in this sector. Moreover, evaluation meetings with other internal and external stakeholders have been instituted. It is therefore in this light that to help the organization make a qualitative leap necessary to give more credibility to national examinations, the CNOENC has launched the project to harmonise the evaluation tools of candidates for various national examinations with the ultimate goal of mastering the quality and contents of papers. The following pages are the outcome of the work carried out in collaboration with all these experts and teachers if Private Institutions of Higher Education (PIHEs) authorized to present candidates for these various examinations.

FIELD – – HOME HOME ECONOMICS, TOURISM AND HOTEL MANAGEMENT SPECIALITY/ OPTION: TRAVEL AGENCY, TOURISM AND OPERATION MANAGEMENT (TAT) PAPER: CASE STUDY PRESENTATION OF PAPERS 1. Nature of paper: Written The case study is a written paper. However, it has elements of practice though done in writing. It comprises of courses such as Travel and tourism in Action and Tourism development, which are implied practical courses or better still, it is a demonstration paper. 2. Structure of paper:
The case study is made up of four parts History of Tourism Ethics in tourism Human resource management In-depth analysis of case in point. I. Tourism development II. Travel and tourism in action III. Any area of tourism that warrants exploration From the above it is indicative that the part four of this paper can come from aany ny aspect of tourism. However, given that the other elements are already alre ady incorporated in the other papers, emphasis should be laid on the aspect of developing tourism and exploiting tourism resources. 3.
