Wellness Travel Specialist Course
The WTA has once again partnered with The Travel Institute (TTI) the Wellness Travel Specialist Course!
To enable travel advisors, retreat leaders and others, to meet the demands of the growing market segment focused on incorporating healthful elements into their travel plans, The Travel Institute and Wellness Tourism Association have continued their partnership and launched the 2nd edition of the Wellness Travel Specialist Course.
What can you learn from the Wellness Travel Specialist Course?
Travel advisors and others who sign up for the course will learn about wellness travel terminology, trends, buyer profiles, consumer motivations and Must Haves, a wide range of wellness travel products, as well as actionable advice from industry insiders on helping travel advisors make wellness travel a successful business segment.
Students who successfully complete the course, pass their online exam and submit the experiential checklist earn standing as Certified Wellness Travel Specialists. Those who complete the course are also eligible for a one-time 50% discount on WTA Membership. Those who become certified also receive a Wellness Travel Specialist badge to help promote themselves as such.
“This course is truly an A-Z, start-to-finish resource for agents,” remarked Guida Botelho, CTIE, director of training for The Travel Institute. Botelho emphasized that along with the practical information agents gain, “The real differentiator for this course is the specific, how-to, implementable business planning steps around sales, marketing, branding, and more. This course actually guides agents in applying their new knowledge to achieve traveler bookings and that will be a game-changer for many who want to tap into this market.”
