Flanders expands training

NEW modules have just been released on the Visit Flanders trade training website, with course content covering the historic battlefields of World War I and cycling holidays within the Belgian region.

Travel agents can familiarise themselves with the towns, battlegrounds, memorials and cemeteries that draw thousands of travellers from Australia & NZ each year, including Ypres, The Menin Gate and Tyne Cot Cemetery.

The training website also features essential information on how to plan, book and make the most of a program of events for ANZAC Day commemorations held in the region each year.

For cycling enthusiasts, the new course content shows how travellers can enjoy leisure-based cycling activities between towns and attractions through to road cycling tours managed by fully organised local ground operators.

“Both modules are customised with content of specific interest to the travel trade and highlight some really special features to include in a trip to Flanders,” according to Visit Flanders Account Manager Sonia Holt.

“Travel agents who complete all four modules are eligible to receive an invitation to participate in a six night famil trip enjoying the best of Flanders in 2021,” she added.

Built using the Travel Daily Training Academy platform, the dedicated website also includes modules on the Essentials of Flanders and the Art Cities of Bruges, Ghent and Antwerp.
