FRAMINGHAM, MA, September 1, 2016 –The Travel Institute today announced details of “Better Together,” a month-long promotion in September designed to help travel professionals boost their expertise in three targeted areas while enjoying never-before bundled pricing.

“So far our ‘Year of the Travel Professional’ and the third annual ‘Promote Your Professionalism’ in July have delivered exactly what we intended: higher exposure about a travel agent’s value, greater engagement across our industry, and more professionals elevating their careers through our scholarship opportunities, said COO Diane Petras, CMP, CTIE.
“Our ‘Better Together’ promotion builds on that success by combining three often-requested topics, each at a very affordable price point. The timing is also intentional, as in September we naturally think about education and learning now that schools are back in session. What’s more, it’s a time when many travel professionals start strategizing about the coming year. The New Agent and Owner/Manager bundles focus on the skills needed to hit the ground running in 2017. And the Romance package is a deep dive into this popular – and very profitable – niche market,” said Petras.
