’ 17 RECAP
Knowledge and experience merge at educational sessions
Industry leaders , marketing experts and your NTA peers led seminars and panel discussions aimed at improving your business .
Being new to NTA , [ I thought ] the Travel Exchange 101 education session was great . I learned some invaluable tips on how to get the most out of all the events during the week . The speakers were entertaining and insightful !

“ The insights and advice shared by the diverse women on the Women in Travel panel highlighted the strong sense of community within NTA . As a first-time attendee , I found the session to be a great opportunity to connect with other women in the travel industry .”

I enjoyed the educational sessions focused on video marketing that were lead by
Meaghan Corson . Meaghan brought some real-life experiences and some great tips that would help us to present our best side on camera . She gave us the opportunity to practice and had some great data to support the growth of video marketing and why we should be doing it .

“ Tourism Cares worked hard and played hard at TREX ’ 17 . The charitable community of the travel industry helped 15 academic scholarship winners kick off their careers by pairing them with 31 industry pros for mentoring . We also hosted two panel discussions and the annual Tourism Rocks dance party .”
