Oneworld launches training academy

Oneworld launches training academy
By admin


Oneworld Alliance has launched a new online training program which offers to make agents "experts" in round-the-world fares.

The Oneworld Academy features a range of e-learning tools to train travel agents around the world on various aspects of the alliance and its range of products.

Its aim is to dispel the "widespread myth" that RTW fares are complicated products to sell and book, according to Oneworld sales director José María Alvarado.

"The Oneworld Academy will take the mystery out of the process by showing how quick, easy and simple Oneworld Explorer and our other fares are to sell and how they can be a valuable tool for travel agents to meet their customers' needs," he said.

The first module examines Oneworld's range of consumer fare products and currently focuses on its flagship Oneworld Explorer fare. It will be developed later to feature the alliance's other fares.

It can be accessed at travelagent.oneworld.com.
