Welcome to the October Newsletter for all ATP members. Through these pages we hope to keep you up to date with the developments at ATP and how ATP is expanding into the Travel Industry! Of course carry on logging on and keeping your CPD points updated, everyday we are adding new points for you to access.
ATP Points for Talking Travel
ATP members are reminded that they can earn points for Talking Travel. If you attend the training session and the ABTA Today Live session you can earn two points. If you only attend one of these components you can obtain a point for the one you attended. Talking Travel is ABTA’s new series of roadshows. This is the second time key members of the ABTA Team have travelled around the country meeting members and updating them on what is happening at ABTA and in the industry. Attendance for ABTA members is free and details can be found on www.talking.travel.
Make sure travel qualifications meet the need of travel employers!
People1st (the Sector Skills Council for our industry) are radically reforming travel qualifications. The aim is that they meet employers’ needs; help promote clear development pathways; are clearly understood and are flexible to allow employers to build packages that meet their needs. In order to make sure they meet your needs they need to work with employers in our industry. People 1st have organised a range of meetings across the UK. If you want to play a part in shaping the qualifications offered in the travel industry and ensure that they meet your needs as an employer please ring Jill Lynch on 01895 817 058 or see the website for dates and information
ATP at WTM
We will be at World Travel Market again this year on the ITT’s Skills Zone – stand EM475. Skills Zone is in its fourth year at the World Travel Market and is dedicated to training, qualifications and personal professional development. A range of seminars will be on offer, many of which will earn you CPD points. To find out more go here.
Discounts
Members should not forget the wide range of discounts on offer through TBX. A wide range of companies offer discounts to ATP members. For example you can get a 10% discount at the White Company, 4% of white goods and kitchen appliances at John Lewis and 10% off DIY essentials.
In order to keep the website as up to date and useful to you as possible, we are constantly building our database of learning opportunities that you can earn ATP points for. If you think any of the in-house training, fam trips, seminars or industry events you attend should count towards ATP, then we would be pleased to hear from you. Just email us here.
Don’t forget to also let us know any ideas you might have for additional benefits for members, or anything else you would like to see included on the website!
Best Wishes
