The Travel Institute released details about its fourth and final month-long themed learning program for the year, Growing Your Business Through Specialization.

The program, which will take place through the entire month of October, will provide agents with webinars, tips and tools designed to help them find ways in which to grow their businesses by focusing on specific niches and destinations.

“We’re hearing from many travel professionals that specialization is their pathway to success,” said Pat Gagnon, CTC, The Travel Institute’s director of program development. “Whether it’s through a destination or niche-lifestyle focus, The Travel Institute has more than 20 courses to help you grow your bottom line by narrowing your business focus to a finite and profitable collection of products.”

The webinar will include Specialization and Choosing Your Niche, Villa Travel Vacations, Northern and Central Italy, How to Introduce River Cruising to Your Affluent Clients, Well-Being Travel and Southern Italy and the Islands.

The October program will also provide agents with a series of e-newsletters and blogs with practical information on ways in which to develop niches.

Around the World with The Travel Institute, a twice-weekly geography quiz competition will focus on Italy, Alaska, North America, and Mexico, with prizes award to agents at the end of the month.

The first three Travel Institute month-long training programs for 2015 included Preparing for a Career in Travel in February, Let’s Get Social in April and Promote Your Professionalism in July.

Agents interested in the October webinars must register in advance. For more information, log on to www.thetravelinstitute.com.
