PATA, UK & Ireland, gets creative with new training events

In celebration of all Pacific Asian destinations leaving the red list, a series of virtual events will take place throughout autumn and winter. 

The Pacific Asia Travel Association, UK & Ireland,  is set to host a packed programme of virtual training events for agents throughout autumn and winter this year. 

Beginning this month, the first training event is 'PATA Pictionary' on October 20, 2021, testing agents' knowledge of the Asia Pacific region and their artistry. On November 24, 2021, the association will host its first virtual treasure hunt. 

Commenting on the new training formats, PATA?s Matt McCausland (account director) said: ?Video platforms continue to make it relatively easy for us to stay in touch with agents, however we recognise it?s important to keep looking for more inventive ways to engage with our agents. 

"With the hugely successful return of Taste of PATA last month, our in-person events have begun to resume soon but we recognise that there is still a huge demand for online events: as we head towards 2022 we?ve got lots of exciting plans for both online and in-person.
