Travel Agent Academy (TAA) is launching its Spring Learning Challenge from March 1 through April 30, giving advisors the chance to win one of five $100 gift cards.
Each completed course earns one entry into the drawing, and the more courses participants finish, the more chances they have to win. Five winners will be selected at the end of the challenge.
For advisors who have participated in previous TAA promotions, the benefits go beyond prizes.
“I’ve found Travel Agent Academy to be an incredibly helpful resource in growing my knowledge as a travel advisor,” said Melanie Ruiz, a travel advisor at Escapes.ca. “I love that the lessons are concise, engaging, and I can manageably fit into my schedule. The ability to earn certifications and rewards as I complete trainings not only motivates me to keep learning, but also adds value to my professional profile. It has become one of my go-to tools for staying informed, confident, and competitive in the travel industry.”
“At Travel Agent Academy, our mission is to equip travel advisors with the knowledge and confidence they need to grow their business,"said Karina Nascimento, Director, Education Programs at Studio90, part of Northstar Travel Group. "This Spring Learning Challenge not only rewards advisors for investing in their education, but also helps them earn Specialist badges that enhance their credibility and visibility with clients. The more they learn, the more they can sell — and that’s a win for everyone. When advisors invest in their education, they invest in their success. This promotion is about rewarding that commitment — giving advisors more knowledge, more credibility, and more opportunities to grow their sales.”
Participants can also earn Specialist badges as they complete courses. These can be used on an email signature or on social media to help advisors stand out and boost credibility.
