Travel Agents who want to become a Certified Travel Counselor or Travel Manager should act now as ACTA is offering a 30% discount. 

To register, use the code PROMO2025 for 30% off and enroll here. This promotion is valid until December 13th, 2024.

Counsellors with a CTC - Certified Travel Counsellor or CTM - Certified Travel Manager designation are recognized as being amongst the highest qualified travel advisors. The CTC and CTM certifications are the only designations recognized nationwide in Canada. Certification is the mark of excellence, as it recognizes an individual's competence in their occupation and provides a marketable credential to use.

“This is an excellent opportunity for those advisors who are not yet certified to take advantage of  considerable savings," said Wendy Paradis, ACTA president.  "Get certified and become a CTC/CTM to enhance your professional credentials and stand out in the industry!” 

Paradis said there are many advantages to being certified, including the following:

·  Gain recognition as a leader in the Canadian travel industry

·  Propel your career with enhanced opportunities for advancement

·  Enjoy priority access and exclusive rates for Experiential Educational Experiences

·  Access special pricing for industry conferences

For agents who want to get started but aren't sure how the process works, ACTA is holding a webinar on December 9th at 1pm called "Elevate Your Career: Understanding CTC/CTM Certification and How to Get Started" Monica Perez Garcia, Manager of Education & Certification at ACTA, will reveal the transformative impact of CTC and CTM certifications. From eligibility criteria to exam preparation, Monica will walk advisors  through the process so they can confidently move forward on the certification journey.

What's new for 2025 for already certified members:

ACTA members who are already certified will want to know about these features:

·  Upon renewal, advisors receive a special personalized verification link and logo by email to add to their signature line, displaying their achievement as a CTC/CTM.

·  CTC/CTM certification can now be verified online.

·  Certified members will be featured at the top of the ACTA Member Directory making it easier for consumers to find them. To see their listing, advisors can simply type in their name at acta.ca/member_directory.php*

·  CTC/CTM members who are independent travel advisors appear first in the Member Directory, while travel agency employees are only listed within their agency's entry, not individually.
