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.

We combine online study guides and Web sites with some of the most recognized travel reference materials on the market today.
Throughout your training, experienced instructors are available via e-mail or the toll-free number. You will enjoy weekly instructional chat rooms where you can network with fellow students and graduates and meet some of today's preferred suppliers.
