As the network celebrates its second anniversary, it has unveiled Expedition Cruise Academy, a training platform to help agents boost their sales in the expedition sector
Agents can choose from free or premium memberships; the latter will upgrade the experience with exclusive destination training opportunities and features that help match client expectations or wishes with the ideal operator or vessel.
Free membership enables access to taster training with the network's members and other online resources, including downloadable factsheets and marketing materials. Each taster course follows the same format but includes details on accessing each operator's dedicated training and resources for agents.
Akvile Marozaite, the Expedition Cruise Network's CEO and co-founder, said, "There is nothing like this comprehensive hub on expedition cruise in the market today and it not only offers key insights into the industry but provides a key training path for travel advisors to become professional experts in expedition cruising.
"We are committed to being the number one provider for agents looking to grow their knowledge in this everchanging industry."
At last year's ECN Conference, the Expedition Cruise Network reported that 100% of its members maintained or grew sales in 2024 against 2023. The Conference will return this year for its second iteration from September 30th to October 1st in London.
