The Certified Tourism Ambassador program is a nationwide training certification that helps communities understand the value of their destination by providing information about history, culture, art, recreation, and the outdoors. The program’s goal is to bring consistency, positivity, and local pride to the people visitors meet in the community by expanding their awareness of tourism assets. CTA training is open to everyone, so whether you’re a student, young professional, hospitality employee, history enthusiast, retiree or simply enjoy being involved and in-the-know, CTA offers a variety of ways to be involved.
FCVB will be hosting classes for those interested in becoming a Certified Tourism Ambassador August – November. Classes will be held at the 11/30 Franklin County Visitors Center in downtown Chambersburg on August 24th, October 5th, and November 30th. Registration begins at 8:45am with a class start time of 9am. Light refreshments and lunch will be provided.
