Azamara Cruises has relaunched agent training programme Azamara World Academy.

The online programme, reintroduced ahead of Clia’s Cruise Week, aims to make sure agents have the tools to be able to sell Azamara sailings effectively.

Stuart Pearce, head of trade sales at Azamara, said: “This dedicated training programme offers valuable knowledge to our travel agents while also rewarding their dedication to learning more about our product and services.”

The Azamara World Academy can be accessed on Azamara Connect, with agents who complete the course becoming ‘Azamara Cruises Experts’.

Rewards include special rates for personal holidays and invitations to seminars and ship visits.

Throughout September, the cruise line is doubling its booking incentive so agents receive £20 per booking.

Clia’s Cruise Week runs from September 16 – 22.
