The syllabus is to prepare you mentally for your upcoming trip (no matter where it is) so that you have the historical, cultural, and economic perspective on the locale.
For the Never Stop Marketing corporate off-site/vacation to Malta, here are just a few of the items
- Watched the movie Sovereign Order of the Knights of Malta
- Watched the Maltese Falcon
- Read the entire Wikipedia entry, of course
- Read Christopher' Marlowe’s “The Jew of Malta”
- Listening to At All Costs (Unabridged) (In 1942, Malta was the most heavily bombed place on earth).
