Tourism Western Australia has launched its West Aussie All Stars (WAAS) trade training program, an educational tool designed to help travel professionals effectively sell Western Australia.

Tourism Western Australia has offered agents the opportunity to become a West Aussie All Star through a series of eight training modules featuring the five regions of WA: Destination Perth, Australia’s South West, Australia’s Coral Coast, Australia’s North West and Australia’s Golden Outback.

The WAAS is an interactive online training program that will provide the travel trade with a greater understanding of Western Australia to enable them to build inspiring itineraries for clients to tick off their adventure bucket lists.

Qualified agents will also gain access to benefits including a digital WAAS badge for inclusion on assets and first consideration for Western Australia famils and east coast trade events.

To entice participation in the WAAS, Tourism Western Australia is offering the travel trade the following special incentives:

  • Agents who complete all eight modules in the first 4 weeks of the launch, will be in the running to be one of five lucky entrants to be selected to win a Broome pearl including a famil to Broome to collect it.
  • The first 50 agents to complete the training will receive a $100 gift voucher.
