See what graduates from the Certified Travel Counsellor (CTC) program have to say!:

I had already been working in the travel industry for almost 20 years when I decided to take the CTC course, offered by ACTA.  I still learned lots through the process, and would highly recommend pursuing accreditation thru ACTA.  

The designation has had a huge impact on both my confidence and my ability to create instant trust with new clients.  Especially when I'm an IC working from home, credibility and trustworthiness can be hard to prove, but the CTC designation does it for me.  

I also discovered a renewed sense of pride once I had acquired this designation, as it tells people [and reminds me!] that I am a true professional in the travel industry, backed by an association that promotes integrity and best practices.  The CTC designation has elevated how I am perceived by clients and industry professionals alike.
