There are e-learning resources to boost product knowledge and gain an official cruise certification, with a range of agent-friendly factsheets, guides and other resources on the website.
CLIA membership offers access to brand profiles, trade contacts, booking and training information from all cruise lines and select associated businesses.
Members get access to virtual and on-demand training, covering subjects across the cruise sector, alongside podcasts and virtual ship tours.
In addition, CLIA agents can attend in-person events, such as the annual CLIA conference, which is the highest-attended event in the UK agent calendar, and the RiverView river cruise conference.
There are also exclusive trade incentives for members.
In addition, CLIA is offering the following new-for-2024 virtual activities:
CLIA in conversation’: Monthly live 30-minute sessions, with in-depth news, analysis and guest speaker insights
