The Grenada Tourism Authority (GTA) launched its new travel agent specialist program. Powered by the Recommend Education Center, the Grenada Travel Expert Program is an e-learning program that allows the travel agent community to acquire the knowledge necessary to become an expert in selling the destination.

As interest in international travel continues to make its comeback, the GTA recognizes the importance of the travel advisor’s role in meeting this demand and thus developed the program to aid them in sharing the destination’s allure with their clients. Additionally, agents will be privy to new developments such as vital updates to Grenada’s Pure Safe Travel protocols, new hotels and attractions as well as airlift updates.

Travel agents that elect to participate in the Grenada Travel Expert Program will learn about the destination’s topography, its 40 white sand beaches, 15 waterfalls, 30 dives sites and more. To incentivize agents, the GTA will be offering a myriad of benefits including:

• Personalized Grenada Travel Expert Certificate of Completion upon graduation
• Continuing Education Units (CEU) from the Travel Institute or Association of Canadian Travel Agencies
• Monthly Cash Rewards to the top three agents recording the most room nights
• Quarterly Cash Reward to the top booking travel agency
• Booking Tier Member Recognition Benefits (Gold, Platinum and Diamond)
• Annual Grand Prize to the travel agent recording the most room nights in a calendar year (agent receives an all-Inclusive vacation for two including airfare, accommodation, meals, and transfers)
• Top 20 agents invited to an Annual VIP Fam Trip for presentation and award ceremony
• Access to exclusive promotional materials such as Grenada Travel Expert recognition logos
