TORONTO — Spain has launched a Spain 360 Expert e-learning program on Travelweek’s Learning Centre.

The first 50 agents to complete the course will get a $100 VISA or AMEX gift card.

The goal of the program is to teach travel professionals with an interest in Spain about the country through an online course which consists of a 10-lesson, interactive series. Lessons begin with a general overview and progress to more specific information related to its regions, its cultural highlights, cuisine, transportation, primary and lesser-known destinations, hotel infrastructure, the cruise market, learning Spanish in Spain and more.

There is no cost to participate in this program, and the platform has been designed so that courses can be conducted on any computer, Android or iOS device.

Professionals who successfully complete this first course will be featured on the Tourist Office of Spain’s lists of priority sellers and will achieve a Spain Expert Certificate. Agents will receive additional benefits: right to use the Spain logo; invitations to special events; agency listing on spain.info; and a subscription to the newsletter. Agents will also receive CTC credit for the completion of the course.

The course can be taken at travelweeklearningcentre.com, or in french at lecentredapprentissage.ca.
