SALEM, Ohio — A recognizable name in the travel industry is making a sizeable effort to educate organizers of group travel and grow the group travel market. Collette, the global tour operator, has entered into an agreement with Select Traveler Conference to offer scholarships to group travel planners for first-time registration and attendance to Select Traveler Conference 2020.
Collette will sponsor the registration cost of participating group leaders to the conference. This unique program is a Collette effort to increase group travel awareness through the education and networking model of Select Traveler Conference.
“Having Collette dedicate their resources to educating group travel leaders and choosing Select Traveler Conference as the partner is impressive and an honor,” said Joe Cappuzzello of Select Traveler Conference.
Select Traveler Conference has dedicated the past 25 years to serving bank travel clubs, university alumni programs, traveling chambers of commerce and leaders of upscale travel. The conference is held annually with about 450 delegates regularly attending from over 20 states. Select Traveler Conference 2020 will be held at Cheyenne, Wyoming, March 22-24.
Group leaders accepted into the Collette scholarship program will receive conference registration, two nights lodging at Cheyenne’s Little America Hotel, all meals and receptions, sightseeing, seminars, marketplace and networking opportunities.
“This is an opportunity to experience Cheyenne as a destination and build your leadership skills and travel knowledge at the same time,” Cappuzzello said. “Visit Cheyenne will welcome Select Traveler Conference delegates and has assured us that the red carpet will be rolled out so that everyone has a great experience. In short, you get to live the dream of being a cowboy.”
