TrawellTag Cover-More, one of the market leaders in travel ancillary services like global, medical and concierge assistance, luggage tracking and travel insurance conducted its Travel Agents Engagement Programme (TAEP) in Bengaluru on July 30, 2015. The programme was conducted exclusively for travel agents in Bengaluru and the daylong conference was spread over two sessions, morning and evening respectively. Held at ITC My Fortune and Taj Vivanta, this TAEP aimed at enhancing the product knowledge, upsell skills and updating the fellow agents about the recent market trends.
Dev Karvat, managing director, TrawellTag Cover-More said, “We are glad to see enthusiastic participation of the travel agents of our fraternity, who are self-motivated and constantly aspiring to better their overall skills and understand and follow the market inclinations. Not only are travel agencies finding the need for enhancement programme, but trade associations like ETAA are also approaching us for conducting engaging seminars for associate travel agents. Through this developmental programme, TrawellTag Cover-More creates a platform to educate the travel agents on beneficial skills for business growth and such initiatives should be promoted to achieve better and higher quality of travel ancillary sales. As a result of this programme we have seen the awareness levels change in the cities where this has been conducted and so we are optimistic that there is positive scope for such initiatives across India. We are confident that this training session in Bengaluru has been another step forward in our TAEP journey and will boost the travel industry as a whole.”
Recently over the last month, the Western chapter of Enterprising Travel Agents Association (ETAA) facilitated two TAEPs in Mumbai and Pune respectively. This programme has already been held at several major cities in India like Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Nagpur, Indore, Vizag, Pune, Hyderabad and now in Bengaluru.
