Centralized Training: E-Learning in Tourism Associations

Tourism boards for regions strong in tourism, such as Tyrol, the Algarve, or the Baltic Sea region, are under constant pressure to present and sell the highest quality and most innovative offerings to their customers. For destination management organizations, such as regional tourism boards and associations, e-learning offers the opportunity to centrally train sales partners, service providers, and employees. Experts like keelearning work together with clients to develop tailored and individual e-learning projects that can be used in internal marketing. This ensures that employees at all levels receive the same information and sales training, enabling them to communicate the brand optimally to the outside world.

Delighting End Customers: E-Learning in Tourism Marketing

E-Learning can also be an interesting tool in tourism marketing. Oldenburg Tourismus und Marketing demonstrates how this works. Here, e-learning is aimed at end customers in the tourism sector: The experience brand "Kohltourhauptstadt" (Kale Tour Capital) is communicated through various activities, with the Oldenburg Kale Academy at the center. This e-learning platform for end customers focuses on the regional specialty, kale. To earn the so-called "Kale Diploma," visitors complete three e-learning "Kale-oquiums" with content such as the regional "Kale Tour History" or "Kale Culinary Arts." Oldenburg Tourism is thus the first tourism provider in Germany to use the scope of tourism e-learning to bring marketing-relevant content to the target audience in an engaging form. For this, the company reached 3rd place in the German Tourism Award 2012.
