JNTO has launched an e-learning platform to help travel agents sell holidays to Japan.
The Japan Training platform is a portal of online training and engagement tools, including five courses in total. Upon completion, agents can then unlock additional courses for further learning. The modules guide agents through destinations across Japan, including information on food, traditions, scenery, lifestyle and the country's futuristic cities.
For UK visitors, the Golden Route is the most popular, taking in Tokyo, Hakone and Kyoto, with the modules focusing on this route and beyond. Additionally, agents can learn a vast range of useful information such as the best time to visit, flights, the ultimate JR Pass, and how to enjoy a Japanese style inn.
Agents who complete the training in April will be in with a chance to win a special prize.
