From the President
Welcome to the Louisiana Recruiting Chapter.
Welcome and thank you for visiting the Professional Travel Agents of North America’s (PTANA) Louisiana Chapter website. We appreciate you taking the time to explore what we offer and hope you’ll consider joining our powerful organization. Be sure to check back often to stay informed on all the exciting opportunities PTANA Louisiana has for you.
Our theme, “Empowering Louisiana’s Travel Professionals through Education and Encouragement,” isn’t just a catchy phrase; it’s the core of everything we do. We believe that by investing in your knowledge and fostering a supportive community, we can collectively elevate the expertise of every travel agent in our state and nearby. At PTANA Louisiana, our mission is clear: we’re here to empower you through focused education and collaborative encouragement.
We provide a vital local forum where you can grow professionally, expand your network, and connect with like-minded colleagues. With fewer storefront travel agencies and many advisors working from home, it’s easy to feel isolated or even lonely. PTANA offers a local network of colleagues who become friends you can turn to with a question, a concern, or help with a client challenge. We are colleagues in this community, not competitors.
We invite you to attend our monthly Zoom calls, dinner trainings, lunch and learn sessions, and community service projects. Welcome your travel business to the future with PTANA Louisiana! We encourage you to invest in YOU and become a part of our professional community today!
Empowering Louisiana’s Travel Professionals through Education and Encouragement.
