AB The training of quality professionals in the tourism intermediary sector is very important in a country like Spain, where the tourism sector generates about 13% of Growth Domestic Product (GDP). This quality training is subject to a good use of the English language and the use of new technologies so that students can join an increasingly globalized market. To provide this training, Junta de Castilla y León offers an English module in the Higher Technical Degree in Travel Agencies and Event Management. In order to achieve the best methodological approach to be applied in this module using new technologies with the existing curriculum, this master's dissertation proposes a contrastive analysis between flipped learning and fully online learning. The contrastive analysis is shown through an annual syllabus for the above-mentioned English module. The results show that it is not possible to achieve some of the objectives, contents and competences requested by the curriculum using the fully online learning approach, mainly due to the lack of interaction, while it is possible using the flipped learning approach. This indicates that for a good training of future professionals in the tourism intermediary sector, we should select the correct approach in which there is interaction while promoting the use of new technologies.
