Cruise vacations continue to rank No. 1 in consumer interest and value in 2011.

In 2011 the program at sea is aboard the NCL Star from Los Angeles to Tampa via the Panama Canal with stops in Mexico, Costa Rica, Columbia and more. Both the 2009 program aboard the NCL Dawn and the 2010 program aboard the NCL Spirit were sold out. Cabin prices for the people enrolled in this program are significantly below NCL prices.
The 3rd annual program is aboard the NCL Star, sailing October 1st from Los Angeles, CA to Tampa, FL via the PANAMA CANAL. Ports of call are Los Angeles, Cabo San Lucas, Acapulco, Huatulco, Puerto Quetzal, Puntarenas, Cartagena, Key West, Tampa.

Now is the time to experience an amazing cruise while earning your certification. Your 2011 International Tour Manager Certification Program at sea, is scheduled for October 1 to 16 October (16 days, 15 night cruise) while onboard the NCL Star. Classes on the ship are conducted only during the 6 days you are at sea. You have no classes while in any of the ports-of-call. The cruise begins in Los Angeles, CA and ends in Tampa, FL. We are currently accepting enrollments for this program.

There are 6 full days of class while we are at sea, beginning at 8:00 a.m. and ending 5:30 p.m. They are conducted in a private meeting room. Outside of classroom hours you are free to participate in all ship activities. Please note: you will be spending some time in individual and small groups for study and preparation as well as three hours on a motorcoach upon leaving the ship in Tampa. Most of the assignments can be completed prior to the start of the cruise program. Of course, all meals, entertainment, in-port excursions, etc. are available to the students and guests.

Worried about the extra cost of certifying and cruising solo? Students willing to share will be assigned a student roommate. You will have the opportunity to talk with your roommate prior to the start of the program. You may bring non-student guest travelers at the regular NCL rate.

Earning your certification as a Tour Director can lead to an exciting career traveling the world and being paid to do so. With free lifetime placement assistance graduates of this program have worked on all 7 continents. If you want to know more visit www.bepaidtotravel.com/cruise.html
