HOW TO GET INTO THE TRAVEL BUSINESS: Is travel your passion? Do you spend your spare time traveling to

wonderful places and seeing the world? Why not make money out

of doing what you love? This one-session course will explain how

you can turn your passion into a way to earn some extra cash and

possibly a future career. We will explore the ins and outs of the

travel industry and the pros and cons of a travel career. Upon

successful completion, you will have the opportunity to apprentice

with a tour operator. If traveling is your thing, taking this course

might be one of the best decisions you could ever make.

time for student and instructor.)

chances are your reunion will be an unqualified success. Fall is

the perfect time to organize a reunion.

beneficial time for student and instructor.)

SOMEWHERE ON EITHER A ONE-DAY OR MULTI-DAY

TRIP? Just call us and we will help to arrange it, and when
