We are thrilled to congratulate the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau on the successful launch of its innovative Ambassador Training Program for tourism! This groundbreaking initiative was made possible through a collaborative effort with the nonprofit Learn Tourism | learntourism.org, which provided the essential technology and instructional design support needed to bring this community-driven program to life.

Elevating Tourism in the Poconos

The Learn Tourism is dedicated to advancing the tourism industry and building sustainable economies, and we are proud to partner with the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau in this endeavor. 

"The platform's support and resources have been invaluable as we prepare to elevate our visitor experience through enhanced training." - Jennifer, Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau

"We are delighted to provide destinations with the tools, knowledge, and resources they need to create their own transformative, engaging, and accessible training programs." - Stephen Ekstrom, CEO The Learn Tourism

 

This new Ambassador Training Program is designed to "increase knowledge of the Poconos better to serve our visitors, guests, and communities." Here’s why this objective is so important:

Enhanced Visitor Experience

The more our ambassadors know about the Poconos—including its history, culture, natural beauty, and local attractions—the better they can guide visitors, creating more meaningful and enjoyable experiences.

Community Impact

Tourism significantly influences local economies and livelihoods. By gaining a deep understanding of the Poconos, ambassadors can contribute to sustainable growth and promote prosperity for everyone in the community.

Quality Guest Service

Providing exceptional guest service goes beyond sharing essential information. It involves understanding visitors' needs, preferences, and aspirations. Ambassadors' increased knowledge of the Poconos allows them to offer personalized and outstanding service, creating lasting memories for guests.

Educational Growth

As Robert Heinlein wisely said, "When one teaches, two learn." Sharing knowledge about the Poconos not only benefits visitors but also deepens ambassadors' understanding and appreciation of this beautiful destination.

Course Overview

Throughout this course, participants will delve into the rich tapestry of the Poconos. They will explore its geography, history, culture, and attractions, learning how to share this knowledge effectively with visitors. The course also emphasizes outstanding guest services and the positive impact ambassadors can have on local communities.

Key Takeaways

By the end of the course, participants will have the tools to:

  • Enrich the experiences of tourists
  • Contribute to the growth and prosperity of the Poconos region
  • Become more knowledgeable and effective tourism professionals

As Maya Angelou said, "Do the best you can until you know better. Then, when you know better, do better." This course is designed to help ambassadors know better so they can better serve visitors, guests, and communities in the Poconos.
