Well-Being Travel and The Travel Institute have officially launched the first-ever health, wellness and medical travel specialist course today.

The course, which is open to the industry, is available exclusively through Well-Being Travel and The Travel Institute, and is comprised of three on-demand modules so travel sellers can work towards their certification at their own pace.

Cost for the program is $99; travel professionals who register by the end of August will receive value-added benefits including:

o Complimentary membership to Well-Being Travel ($99 value)
o Opportunity to participate in Well-Being FAMs hosted by Greater Fort Lauderdale, Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority and Malaysia Healthcare Travel Council

The interactive course modules will explore selling health and wellness vacations, selling medical travel as well as a ‘how to’ session on successful marketing tactics for this niche. Participants will earn 10 continuing education credits from The Travel Institute upon completion of the course.
