Canadian travel advisors now have access to a new online tool designed to strengthen their role as trusted resources for clients heading abroad.

The Safe Travel Planner, launched by Travel.gc.ca, is a free one-hour online course developed specifically for travel professionals.

It provides information on resources available to Canadians overseas, including emergency contacts, consular assistance, and destination-specific safety advice.

By completing the course, agents receive a professional certificate that can be added to their credentials.

Global Affairs Canada noted the importance of ensuring travellers are informed before departure, as Canadians continue to travel widely around the world.
