About THEREPS

THEREPS (Tourism, Hospitality, and Event Conference for Researchers, Educators, Practitioners, and Students)

The THEREPS conference is hosted by the Korea America Hospitality & Tourism Educators Association (KAHTEA). The KAHTEA was created in 2011 to foster academic and professional collaboration and networking between hospitality and tourism educators and industry professionals in both Korea and America. As a conference host, the KAHTEA aims to better connect to researchers and industry professionals and to provide students and educators with opportunities to showcase their intellectual endeavor. 

We are representatives of researchers, educators, practitioners, and students in the travel, hospitality, and event management.

We help participants build a good professional reputation at work.

We endeavor to bring participants together at our annual conference.
