Advantage launches e-learning course
Advantage has launched its first e-learning course in response to demand from business travel members keen to attract and train new and existing employees.
The travel consortium said the e-learning platform will enhance its existing Advantage Training Academy and create the potential for ‘blended’ learning experiences in classrooms and online.
"We’re delighted to partner with Travilearn to allow our members to invest in equipping employees with the skills needed to succeed in the industry of corporate travel," said CEO Julia Lo-Bue Said.
"These specialist courses not only provide valuable professional development but are designed in a way that both suits modern learning styles and fit with the busy working environment."
Travilearn claims its research shows that e-learning can save 60% of time compared to classroom-based courses. It also reduces associated travel costs, allowing businesses to invest more in staff training, said Advantage.
The collaboration with Travilearn will initially provide Advantage Travel Partnership members with discounted rates on specialist online courses, all certified by the Guild of Travel Management Companies.
