Since 1990, the implementation of MRA (Mutual Recognition Arrangement) in tourism has been supporting the ASEAN Economic Community 2015. Although there has been an increased awareness of government and related agencies in ASEAN countries to support the MRA implementation, challenges have also significantly increased in its practice. This study explores and evaluates challenges of MRA implementation and considers what recommendations might be proposed for tourism higher education institutions in Indonesia. ASEAN MRA for tourism includes tourism professionals, employers and training providers. The discussion highlights MRA implementation within the qualification system used by the tourism and training industry in Indonesia. The results of this study may serve as a basis for educational institutions to assess MRA implementation in developing curriculum appropriate to tourism higher education institutions in Indonesia. The National Tourism Professionals Board and the National Tourism Professional Certification Board are also expected to use this information in developing their strategy and for policy making and management of MRA implementation. This study involved a qualitative approach using an in-depth interview technique of 30 tourism lecturers and instructors in charge of academic affairs and curriculum development in several education and training providers in Indonesia.
