Visit Seattle has launched its new Seattle Destination Training, a free, interactive, online program for travel advisors. The self-paced program, which debuted on March 31, aims to provide agents with comprehensive knowledge about Seattle's attractions, culture and natural beauty.
The curriculum consists of four courses: "Seattle's Spirit: Sports & Events," covering the city's sports scene and annual events; "Mastering the Art of Selling Seattle," offering strategies to showcase the city to potential travelers; "Exploring the Great Outdoors: Seattle's Adventure Guide," detailing outdoor activities and natural wonders; and "Savoring Seattle: A Culinary Journey," focusing on the city's food and drink scene.
"We're thrilled to launch this Seattle training program," said Liz Johnson, senior director of tourism development at Visit Seattle. "Equipping travel professionals with the tools and resources to become destination experts is crucial, and with this certification, our partners will be able to easily curate unforgettable experiences for visitors from around the globe."
Participants who complete the program receive a "Seattle Certified" designation. The program includes access to free resources including visuals; guides; and updates on destination news, trends and attractions.
