ASTA launches series of 'virtual' educational seminars

ASTA has launched a series of virtual educational seminars designed to help agencies improve customer service skills and implement innovative management procedures.

The live Internet-based, interactive seminar series is produced in cooperation with KRM Virtual Seminars and draws on experienced business strategists and entrepreneurs who will draw on their own experiences and share sure-fire tips for success, ASTA said.

Among the upcoming seminars is Creating Long-Term Growth: Unlocking the Power of Management Innovation, scheduled for Nov. 8 at 1 p.m. (EST).

The seminar will delve into a companys management DNA, and how traditional management theories can harm a company and define the obstacles and challenges that will either make or break a company in the wake of unexpected change, ASTA said.

Another seminar, Authenticity: What Customers Really Want, is slated for Dec. 6 at 11 a.m. (EST). It is designed to explain how businesses can utilize certain practices that will improve their credibility and authenticity, ASTA said.

Travel agents and suppliers who participate in these types of seminars will see both immediate and long-term results, said Cheryl Hudak, ASTA president and CEO. Its an easy way for businesses to invest in their employees and their future.

The cost of registration varies for each seminar, although there is no limit to how many individuals can participate. Additional information is available on line at http://online.krm.com/iebms/coe/coe_p1_all.aspx?oc=10&cc=0244519 or by calling (703) 739-6872.
