Who It’s For

Why Do This Course

Start In Travel From Scratch

This is an entry-level course, so you can come in with no background in travel. You pick up the skills the job runs on: helping clients, booking flights and putting trips together.

Upskill For Your Current Role

Already selling trips or working front of house? Work through airfares, packaging tours and travel paperwork at your own pace, and take on more of the job with confidence.

Study Around Your Life

Lessons are short video modules you can watch on demand. Assessments can be retaken as many times as you need, marking comes back within one business day, and access is yours for life.

Where The Skills Fit

Where These Skills Could Take You

These skills get used all over travel: agencies, tour companies, hotels and booking teams. The work is easy to picture: matching people to trips, pricing flights, writing up itineraries and sorting the paperwork.

Travel Sales Agent

Selling trips, building airfares and booking them in. The bookings, quotes and client skills from this course, used all day.

Tour Package Sales

Selling tour packages to holidaymakers. Packaging tourism products is a topic in the course.

Destination Specialist

Knowing a region well and giving advice people trust. Destination advice is part of what you learn here.

Tour Guide

Out with groups, keeping the day running and the stories coming. Customer skills matter more than anything.

Small Business Owner

Your own tours, accommodation or transport. Selling, quoting and looking after clients are the skills a small travel business runs on.

None needed. This is an entry-level course, so it starts from the basics of travel and tourism.

How long does the course take?

Around 48 study hours, at your own pace. Access is lifetime, so there is no deadline. You can come back to the material after you finish.

The weekly plan is $15 per week, interest-free with no credit check. Enquire for the full payment options, including pay in four with Afterpay and upfront.

How are assessments done?

Short answer and multiple choice, built to help you understand rather than test you against the clock. You can retake them as many times as you need, and marking comes back within one business day.

Yes. You learn to make bookings with the computerised reservation system used widely in the travel industry, along with airfares, itineraries and quotes.
