Knowledge is power, and your ticket to becoming an ultra-successful travel advisor lies in your ability to master the brands, products and destinations available to you and your clients. Here to help you along your journey is VAX VacationAccess, the leading leisure travel marketplace lauded for its award-winning booking engine and valuable tools and resources created to enable travel advisor success, including comprehensive educational content. Whether you’re looking to learn the ropes of the travel industry, want to familiarize yourself with popular brands or have questions about how to use VAX to its full power, you’ll find it all within the platform’s “Education” hub. Ready to start learning? Here’s what you need to know.
Brand Training & Education
The first option listed under the “Education” tab in VAX’s main navigation menu, “Brand Training & Education” is the place advisors can go to familiarize themselves with their favorite brands across the industry. From webinars and immersion programs to offsite programs and more, brands listed on VAX come here to share educational resources that will help you expertly sell their products.
VAX Training & Education
An award-winning booking engine, information-packed brand showcases, destination pages, shareable content galore and so much more, we’ll be the first to admit that navigating and using VAX to its full capacity can be a little intimidating. But fret not, registered VAX users hoping to learn more about the platform’s capabilities can visit the “VAX Training & Education” page, the second option under the "Education" tab in VAX’s main navigation menu. Here, advisors will find everything they need to know to start taking full advantage of the wide variety of tools and resources available to them when they browse the page’s seven dedicated categories: “Learn on VAX,” “Book on VAX,” “Minimizing Fraud Risks,” “Manage Your Reservations,” “Manage the Money,” “Engage With Your Clients” and “Site Manager Resources.”
New Advisor Education
Whether you’re new to VAX or new to the industry, you’ll want to make the “New Advisor Education” page — the third option listed under the “Education” dropdown menu on the main VAX navigation bar — your first stop when you’re ready to start exploring the site. Something of an onboarding kit created specifically for advisors, on this page visitors will find the essentials they need to meet brands, join key industry organizations and start building their business with help from VAX. The New Advisor Education page is home to lots of good stuff, and it’s our hope that you walk away feeling excited to get started after browsing sections like “Welcome to VAX,” “Booking 101,” “Industry Organizations” and “Advanced Features & Functionalities.”
Maxwell’s Monthly Contest
As you explore the site, you might encounter a sunglass-donning penguin. No, it’s not a wacky glitch, you’ve just found Maxwell, VAX’s friendly flippered friend who doubles as the brand’s mascot. While Maxwell makes regular appearances in our communications and creative materials throughout the year, when site users stumble upon a miniature version of the fun-loving bird, they’ve “found Maxwell,” something they’ll want to head to the “Maxwell’s Monthly Contest” section in the "Education" dropdown menu to report for their chance to win a special prize. The ongoing quest to find Maxwell is our way of motivating site users to explore VAX beyond the booking engine, and when you find him, you’re basically an honorary detective. Nice work!
