About this course

Learn to plan trips, book travel, handle visa requirements, and build a profitable travel consultancy.

Many people think travel agents just book flights and hotels, but it's much more than that. In Nigeria, the travel business is booming because people are always moving – for work, school, holidays, medical treatment, or just visiting family. Your job as a consultant is to make these journeys smooth and stress-free for your clients, and you get paid for that expertise and service. Think of yourself as a problem-solver, not just an order-taker.
