LGBT+ INCLUSION TRAINING FOR TOURISM STAKEHOLDERS:
2-STEP TRAINING PROGRAM

2. In-Person workshop
:

Wednesday, March 25 – 8:00am12:00pm

Program Overview:

Providing customer satisfaction goes beyond offering products and services of value. Destinations and operators also have to ensure that LGBT+ customers feel welcome and accepted, and are served in a way that exceeds their expectations. From a business perspective, LGBT+ customers are critically aware of where they spend their tourism dollars. They buy from businesses that demonstrate progressive policies and practices toward LGBT+ customers and employees. By providing LGBT+ inclusion training, you are not only demonstrating your commitment to the LGBT+ market, you are also creating a positive and inviting environment for all of your staff.
