Travel is special and it has the ability to inspire people like few other industries. Travel Counsellors has seen a rise in experienced travel consultants who have left the industry looking to return, and as a result have introduced an extended induction and training programme for successful candidates to update their travel skills and knowledge
We support you so you never feel alone
We include one-on-one sales advice and further detailed training on the company's technology including it's in-house dynamic packaging system Phenix. Travel Counsellors also focus on showing agents how to build their customer database and market to them using innovative and 'easy to use' technology. To join the re-training programme, there is a one-off fee of €1500. Find out more about the support we offer here.
When I joined Travel Counsellors I was petrified. I hadn't worked in the travel industry for over ten years. However, I found the training invaluable in that a lot of the material I had learnt in the past came flooding back. I found that the material and training provided was condensed, precise and to the point and extremely helpful in how I operate and run my business. The support provided by our head office in Cork and in Bolton in the UK is second to none. It's reassuring to know that there is a person at the end of the phone, day or night, in the event of any crisis. I feel that I am now part of a large family in the new friends and colleagues I have formed!

"I returned to travel because it was an area I immensely enjoyed working in. In the past, I worked in business travel and enjoyed the fact that I was able to book the type of travel that my clients wanted. I also loved the interaction with clients and my fellow work colleagues. The only downside to my past career was that I worked long hours in a busy environment with little or no reward.
Travel Counsellor was the answer. It allows me to be my own boss, work the hours I wish, build my own business and form new friendships with fellow colleagues and clients."
Antoinette O'Connor, Re-Training Graduate
