Private Enrollment Class for Grand Blanc Chamber of Commerce Members!
We are excited to offer this fun and interactive training, courtesy of the Flint & Genesee Certified Tourism Ambassador Program, on Thursday September 25th, from 9 a.m. until about 1 p.m. A light breakfast, and beverages will be provided. The certification fee is normally $30, but we are offering this training at no cost, to the first 30 members that enroll. There is a pre-read booklet that everyone is required to read before attending class and a 28-question quiz at the end of the training (open book/class participation).
 
A little history about the Program. Almost eight years ago, Explore Flint & Genesee (Convention & Visitors Bureau) introduced the CTA Program (which is a national, industry certification) to the area to help increase tourism and change the perception of Flint & Genesee by inspiring local employees, employers, volunteers, and people that live, work, and play in our community, to turn every encounter into a positive experience. When visitors, and those that call Flint & Genesee home, have positive experiences they are more likely to return and share these great experiences with others. Everyone benefits!
 
The CTA Program also helps align Flint & Genesee with a positive message about our community and increases the knowledge about our history and tourism that tourists and residents enjoy.
 
Please find attached, easy directions on how to create a personal CTA account/profile and register for the Thursday, September 25th training course. The process takes just a few minutes. Please open the attachment and follow the directions of enrolling and becoming a CTA. When you get to the last page (page 5) follow the directions “To become a CTA – complete the enrollment form” and then “Check-Out of the cart.”
 
Here is the enrollment link to the CTA Network website - https://ctanetwork.com/. Enrollment for each scheduled training course does close two weeks prior so everyone has time to prepare. The last day to enroll in the September 25 training is September 11.
