Welcome to the Tourism Pro Academy

These past few years have changed the Tourism industry. It has been a challenge recovering, but it is growing and evolving again!

Your job had probably changed. Or you might be in the same role but with fewer resources, or learning a new role with little guidance. Or maybe you are new to the Tourism industry (Welcome- I am so glad you are here!) and want to succeed and grow.

Let this site be the place where you get your bearings, and start to find ways to make this situation a positive one for you, your team, and your business.

The saying 'We are all in this together' has always been true for tourism, now it is necessary.

The first step? You can get started right away by checking out the Free Tourism resources section, where you can find tools such as glossaries and ‘how-to’ articles so that you can become a confident and informed tourism professional as we move forward.

Once you have checked out those resources take a peek at the online courses, mini-courses and my e-book on the Group tour industry.

No matter where you are working today, continuing to learn is key to your success. Take this opportunity to learn some new skills that will make you a stronger business professional.

My goal is to help you get more visitors through your doors. Let's do this!

The Networking Checklist - your secret tool for success!

Hi -

You are so busy at tradeshows that sometimes you get home and realize you didn't meet someone you had wanted to meet, or taken the time to get to know your top client a bit better.

I get it- I went to dozens of trade shows every year. And now that I have my own consulting company, I realized I have to be more deliberate and focused.

So I developed this Networking Checklist to help me reach my goals at trade shows. Download this checklist and store it on your computer. Every time you get ready to head out to a trade show, take a few minutes to fill this out.
