Transat Distribution Canada\u2019s General Manager Karine Gagnon says ongoing training is a key pillar in supporting excellence across its network, which is a main driver behind why the organization is joining TravelPress Live! as an Industry Partner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cEvery day, travel advisors must navigate a constantly evolving market, travellers whose needs are rapidly changing, and transformative technology. That\u2019s why we do everything we can to offer them relevant, accessible learning opportunities,\u201d Gagnon tells TravelPress Today. \u201cIn fact, TDC provides a wide range of exclusive training opportunities to its network throughout the year. We also encourage our agency owners and managers, as well as our travel advisors, to take full advantage of the many training and networking events offered across the industry. For all these reasons, TDC is pleased to partner with TravelPress Live! and is very much looking forward to taking part in the event.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gagnon says that Dianne Jackson, Director of Franchised and Affiliated Members for Ontario, the West and the Maritimes, will be representing TDC at the event taking place June 16 + 17 at Evergreen Brick Works. The two-day experience will bring together travel advisors, suppliers and industry leaders for learning and collaboration through interactive activations and TED-style talks.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\u201cBeyond training itself, we know that networking among professionals working in the travel industry is an invaluable driver of growth,\u201d added Jackson. \u201cConnecting with peers, sharing experiences and discovering different ways of doing things often spark lasting relationships, inspire new ideas, and strengthen the vitality of our industry. Everyone benefits when there are more opportunities to connect, learn, and evolve together.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

As a 100 per cent Canadian travel consortia, Jackson shared that TDC is, \u201cexcited to encourage this initiative by a long-standing Canadian trade media organization.\u201d<\/span><\/p>
