DIGITAL CREDENTIAL TUTORIAL

FOR CTA®, CTC® AND CTIE® GRADUATES

Digital Credentials Webinar

Watch the Travel Institute’s free webinar and we’ll introduce you to Digital Credentials and our online marketing toolkit for Certified Graduates.

Now there is a tool that validates agent certification, elevates professionalism, and recognizes higher educational achievement.

An important tool in the travel agent evaluation process, digital credentials launched in 2019 to offer quick, easy, online confirmation of an agent’s certification status using The Travel Institute as a third-party source. The gold standard in travel agent education for nearly 60 years, certification through The Travel Institute affirms a travel professional’s drive and commitment while also assuring consumers they have found a qualified, capable travel agent. Agents who earn their digital credentials appear in our Certified Travel Agent Directory, combating a lack of industry-wide education standards at a time when technology, specialization and evolving industry dynamics make education and experience more critical than ever.

First:

Add a picture of you! We like the default look of our logo, but it’s hard not to admit that your photo will see better results.

Second:

Add your State or Province. Sometimes, people like to do business locally.  Make sure you enter in your state so that customers can filter results and find their neighbors.

Third:

Write about yourself in the Biography section.  Customers can search for keywords like “River Cruise” and may be looking for somebody with your talents!
