International travel is back!  

After much anticipation, travel is finally on the move again and with it comes a high demand for travel agents. 

The industry has lost nearly one third of its travel agents and this means lots of employment and business opportunities into the future.  

Before the pandemic, 70% of Australia’s international travel was booked through a travel agent and this is expected to rise dramatically as travel becomes more complex. 

Travellers who would normally book on the internet are seeking expert advice, support and reassurance from travel agents.

Start your travel career by studying the Certificate III in Travel with Travel Training Australia and be part of the great travel reset! 

There has never been a better time to become part of this great industry.
