The Anguilla Tourist Board continues to ensure that members of its staff are equipped with the knowledge and skills pertinent to their roles – and recently had four members of the team successfully complete a Professional Certificate in Tourism Destination Management.
Mrs. Shellya Rogers-Webster, Manager Corporate Affairs, Mrs. Sharon Richardson-Lowe, Tourism Assistant, Marketing & International Markets; Ms. Simonia William, Tourism Assistant, Destination Experience; and Ms. Molentiya Samuel, Data & Market Intelligence Officer; started the online certification in June 2020 which ended in October 2020. The staff members thank the former Board of Directors for facilitating the training opportunity.
The certification was offered by the George Washington University, a top Tourism University, and covered six course areas: Intro to Sustainable Tourism; Destination Management; Destination Policy & Planning; Destination Investment & Finance; Destination Marketing; and Product Development.
The knowledge gained from these courses will assist the members of staff in better performing their job functions within the organisation.
The Board of Directors and Management of Anguilla Tourist Board congratulate the employees on their achievement.
