Like many industries, the travel industry has become specialized. Agents, especially home-based, feel they can service their clients better if they focus on one market where they can become extremely familiar with the product. Considering that Cruising has been the fastest growing segment of the travel industry for over 20 years, the Cruise Consultant has become a popular choice for a home-based agent.

The Cruise Consultant Training Program will provide you with the necessary skills to sell cruises and proven techniques to operate a successful home-based cruise agency. The program combines online study guides and web sites with some of the most recognized travel reference books on the market today. Throughout your training, experienced instructors are available via e-mail or the toll-free number. As a student of Career Quest, you will have the opportunity to enroll in training programs offered by the Cruise Line International Association (CLIA) and cruise line specialist programs.

Upon completion of the program, you will receive a transcript of your grades and will be awarded a Certificate of Completion.
