Oceania Cruises offers training and chance to win cruise

High-end cruise line Oceania Cruises is running a series of web-based training sessions giving travel agents the opportunity to win a cruise for two. 

The seven training modules cover product positioning, life onboard, extraordinary cuisine, accommodation, exploring your world, exceptional value and how to book.

Each 15-minute session will be held four times between the 2 and 13 June. After each module a quiz will be sent out to participants with points awarded for correct answers.

Agents who complete all seven modules will be entered into a prize draw to win a seven-night cruise for two with the ultra luxury line.

Bernard Carter, managing director, UK & Europe Oceania Cruises said “The concise nature of the sessions allows agents to improve their product knowledge in bite-sized modules, at times that are convenient to them, which ultimately provides them with the knowledge they need to become an Oceania Cruises Specialist Agent.”

To sign up for the webinars agents should email AgencySales@OceaniaCruises.com to advise which module date and time they wish to attend, including name and email contact information to receive a web link and free phone number to call into for each session.
