> I can't even begin to keep up with all the new training opportunities the suppliers offer.  There are always new ones coming in.  Every day there's something new with one of the suppliers.  It doesn't matter if it is a new product, a promotion, or a new venue.  There is always something new to be learned.  There is so many opportunities to keep learning and growing in our knowledge of the industry, whether we are travel professionals or just travelers, everything from CLIA classes to Travel & Tourism articles.  
>   No matter where we go we are always having to educate others on living with blindness.  I'm glad there are some wonderful people out there who are working with our suppliers and teaching them about blindness and how to work with the blind community.  We all have to advocate for ourselves, but there are some very knowledgable people who are out there training, teaching, and advising our travel suppliers on how to make our next travel experience an enjoyable and relaxing one.  Thank you for all you do. - Tracie

> Being a travel professional, you need to constantly do training, and getting re-certified, especially with CLIA - Cruise Lines International Association, this certification allows you to sell cruises and other forms of transportation, it shows you are a legitimate travel professional.
> Well today I am doing on their new courses, that is given online, so I can renew my ID Card, you have to take at least one class to show you are active in the industry, besides just renewing your account.
> I am doing there Travel for all program. The cruise line industry is working hard to change how the services there clients, it might not be obvious at first, but unless you are working with a professional that knows this, or asking the right questions to make your travel more enjoyable to all. I say way to go cruise industry.
> So this is a step in the right direction, whether travel professionals take this course or other courses out there for the travel professional to learn that is another thing.
> I am trying to educate as many of my suppliers as possible about people with disabilities, I say it this way, because yes we are blind; but some of us have other disabilities that go along with that:

> Like myself, people think I am not blind, because I look at them, or my eyes are not scared or something, I am not always wear dark glasses, unless I am out in the sun. etc.
> Or I get, wait a minute you are not blind you can see me, then I have to go into other explaining about how many blind people are not totally blind, etc. etc.
> Just letting you know what I am finding once I finding something that will help all of us,
> Whether you are a consumer or travel professional.
> Let's hear your thoughts on the matter.
