SUMMARY:Navigating 2SLGBTQI+ Diversity & Inclusion in the Tourism Industry – ACOA Webinar (May 24th\, 2023)
DESCRIPTION:Date: May 24\, 2023 2:00 pm – May 24\, 2023 5:00 pm ADT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe global 2SLGBTQI+ travel market is valued at more than US$200B annually. Canadian destinations are well-positioned to grow their share of this market. But in order to be successful\, destinations and operators must ensure that 2SLGBTQI+ customers feel welcome\, accepted\, and served in a way that exceeds their expectations and accommodates their needs.  \n\n\n\nTo support efforts in developing market-ready products\, CCQC’s Navigating 2SLGBTQI+ Diversity and Inclusion in the Tourism Industry helps tourism-based businesses learn about 2SLGBTQI+ inclusion and how to effectively understand\, value\, and serve 2SLGBTQI+ customers and employees. \n\n\n\nThis training is presented as a workshop webinar\, live via Zoom. This training would not be possible without the support of the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA) and the Government of Canada. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here
