With the world to sell, many counselors choose to specialize in a part of the world that they enjoy, or that their customers gravitate towards. Our Destination Specialist programs span the globe providing you with essential knowledge for you to understand the destination as well as help you create the kinds of experiences your customers expect.

Our courses focus on the geography, culture, essential sites and attractions, travel tips, and sample itineraries that will help you create memorable trips for your clients. Along the way, your study will provide you with information to enhance the traveler’s appreciation of what they will be seeing, tasting, experiencing, and even help guide them on what they may choose to bring back for souvenirs.

We have study materials and testing for:

Alaska

Caribbean

East Asia

European Culture and Heritage

France

Hawaii

India

Mexico

North America

Northern and Central Europe

South Pacific

Southern Europe

Spain

St. Lucia


We also offer a number of other destinations as Test Only Option. We do not offer any study materials for those courses - but if you have a strong working knowledge of one of those destinations, or if you have taken a study course elsewhere, you can still earn a Destination Specialist certificate for these.

If, after taking one of our DS courses, you have made your destination specialty an important part of what you sell on a daily basis, we encourage you step-up to the Certified Destination Specialist level.
