Brand USA’s USA Training Day for Canadian travel agents that will take place virtually on Brand USA Global Marketplace on June 23, 2021. The event will connect Canadian travel agents with the U.S. travel industry, in preparation for when the borders reopen.

The USA Training Day will introduce the Canadian travel trade to Brand USA resources and tools that will help them sell, promote and inspire travel to the USA. Whether traveling by car or plane to the U.S., there are many unique and wonderful destinations that we want to highlight and encourage our Canadian visitors to explore. There will be an opportunity to hear directly from many destinations themselves, as well as the National Park Service and some of Brand USA’s receptive tour operator partners. In addition, by attending the training, agents will also have the chance to win travel prizes during the USA Networking and Training Day quiz!  These prizes include 2 tickets from Air Canada as well as USA land packages.

Here is the program outline:
