The trainers, who underwent in-depth training in Sydney and attended famils across the country, will play a vital role in engaging and upskilling frontline travel sellers in Australia’s key international markets to promote and sell Australia more effectively.

The Aussie Specialist Program is Tourism Australia’s global online training program, shared by all eight state and territory tourism partners and designed to provide frontline travel sellers from around the globe with the knowledge and skills to best sell Australia.
