The Aussie Specialist Program (ASP) is Tourism Australia’s global online training program, run with the cooperation of the State and Territory tourism organisations.
Aussie Specialists are a dedicated group of retail travel agents actively selling and promoting Australia around the world. The program is designed to provide travel agents and distributors with the knowledge and skills to sell Australia more effectively and has won awards for ‘best training program’ in the United Kingdom, Asia and United States of America.
In January 2010, Tourism Australia launched a new version of the program, which is now available in 14 languages. Globally, there are over 20,000 registered agents across more than 110 countries including the key markets of the United Kingdom, Europe, North America and Asia.
