There are several kinds of industry certifications out there, but this unique nine-course program provides expertise and education only American Society of Travel Advisors (the world’s largest association of travel professionals) can provide.
As the demand for a trusted advisor to craft the perfect experience and getaway is increasing, consumers are looking for someone they can rely on to provide personalized guidance and service. Albeit keeping up with the demand and running a robust and successful business is no easy task. Travel Advisors must stay current on industry disruptors and know their rights when it comes to serving their clients with integrity.
“I love that this program focuses on multiple aspects of being a travel advisor. There is so much more to this job than booking vacations. The variety of courses served as a valuable reminder of my legal and moral obligations to my clients, as well as how to make sure I am protected.”
— Lisa Stenfort, VTA, Owner/Advisor of Dreams Delivered Travel.
