Austria alps out agents

THE Austrian National Tourist Office (ANTO) is the latest organisation to launch a dedicated online training program for Australian and New Zealand travel agents.

Designed by the Travel Daily Training Academy to provide expert knowledge and planning tips on how to make the most of travel experiences in the years ahead, the Austria Travel Expert platform has three modules available now.

These include The Essentials, Cultural Experiences and Nature Reloaded, with additional modules to be rolled out over the coming months.

“We’re excited to release the first three modules of our training platform that highlight the perfect combination of culture and nature in Austria and also provide up-to-date information about how to get there and around,” said Astrid GruchmannLicht, Director ANTO.

“The Austria Travel Expert Program will provide agents with the insider knowledge to design unique and safe itineraries focusing on their clients’ interests,” Gruchmann-Licht added.

The online training program is backed by generous incentives to encourage travel agents to register and complete all eight modules over a six-month period.

“Travel agents who complete all eight modules will automatically go into the draw to win a weeklong trip to Austria for two, including flights and Eurail passes.

“There are also plenty of prizes for competing each individual module too,” Gruchmann-Licht advised.
