African Travel Inc launches agent training initiative
Luxury safari vacation specialist African Travel, Inc wants to help agents unlock greater earning potential with the launch of African Travel University.
The agent eLearning initiative gives travel agents in-depth knowledge of African Travel, Inc’s itineraries, marketing incentives and offers, with the first two courses now open for enrolment.
The first course ‘Join the African Travel Herd’ gives agents the lowdown on African Travel’s five unique selling points, the destinations, and what to expect during day on safari.
The second ‘Africa Your Way’ course explains how to find the right client, and how to match them to the ideal destination.
"Our highly motivated agent partners appreciate our ongoing commitment to help them skilfully sell our experiences with greater skill and confidence," said Sherwin Banda, president of African Travel, Inc.
"We are 100% committed to our valued partners and their success as industry experts."
On successful completion of African Travel University, agents become certified African Travel Specialists and earn 50 Safari Bucks.
These can be used toward an agent educational trip as long as it is earned up to June 30.
The new initiative is the latest expansion of The Travel Corporation (TTC)’s Agent Academy, which provides e-learning programs for many of its brands including Trafalgar, Insight Vacationa, Contiki and Uniworld.
