P&O Academy launches as fleet expands
SYDNEY – P&O Cruises has launched its online training programme, P&O Academy, following the expansion of the cruise line’s fleet with the arrival of latest superliner, Pacific Jewel.
P&O Academy is designed for travel agents to improve their knowledge, skills and confidence when selling the P&O Cruises product.
P&O Academy, like Princess Academy, comprises of four ranks – First Officer, Staff Captain, Captain and Commodore.
The completion of each rank offers travel agents a range of benefits including ICCA accreditation points and a free P&O Academy graduation cruise.
Don Clark, director of sales at Complete Cruise Solution which represents P&O Cruises in Australia and New Zealand, said P&O Academy is a great way for agents to build on their knowledge of the local cruising product.
“With the number of Australians and New Zealanders choosing a cruise holiday growing each year, there has never been a better time for travel agents to hone their cruise knowledge and turn it into sales,†Clark said.
The launch includes the release of the first six modules of the programme with a further 18 modules to be rolled out in the coming months.
To celebrate the launch of the P&O Academy, the first 50 travel agents to complete the ‘Introduction to Cruising’ module in the programme will earn $100 bonus commission on their next P&O booking made through Polar Online.
