Our premier leadership-level credential. Master the art of strategic DEI planning and earn the tools to embed inclusive practices into every layer of your organization.
Professionals understand the importance of inclusion but often lack a strategic plan to embed inclusive practices into their organization. Without a comprehensive approach, efforts risk being disconnected, uncoordinated, or superficial.
Without a clear road map, DEI initiatives may feel piecemeal or reactive, risking missteps or appearing insincere. This can diminish stakeholder trust and limit your organization’s impact or growth in responsible tourism.
Our Certified DEI Travel Professional (CDTP) guides you through building a tailored, actionable DEI strategic plan aligned with industry standards. Over two live sessions and four self-paced modules, you will explore DEI foundations, stakeholder engagement, bias, and sustainability—culminating in a comprehensive DEI plan.
Graduates develop a bespoke DEI plan aligned with their organization’s goals, increasing confidence and clarity in implementing inclusion initiatives. This strategic approach enhances your organization’s credibility and long-term resilience in the responsible tourism movement.
