Abstract

The Laica Eloy Alfaro University of Manabí has delivered its services to the province of Manabí for more than 35 years. The extension of Uleam in the Sucre canton has been continuously training professionals in different careers such as tourism and hospitality. The objective of this diagnosis is to analyze the continuing relevance of the tourism career in the Sucre extension. Analyze the tourism professionals of Uleam, and their contribution to the generation of employment in the Sucre canton. The problem: How does the lack of a detailed diagnosis of the increase in professionals in the tourism sector in the Sucre canton and its economic impact affect the increase in opportunities, creating a limitation in the contribution to sustainable development? For the field study, the descriptive method was used. It is conclusive in the sense that it uses quantifiable data to obtain conclusions about a target population. It is based on mostly closed questions, which can limit the ability to obtain exclusive and detailed information from the population. According to the results of the surveys on the association of tourism professionals to contribute positively to the development of the Sucre canton to improve the offer and boost its economy, there is a coincidence with the results of the expert interview that shows the urgent need for professionals to show proposals such as the promotion of the canton through innovation events and new trends.
