Student Success Stories

Launching a new career!

"Dear TTI: I want to thank all the teachers at TTI for their wonderful work. It is difficult to work with so many diverse cultures, and I very much respect the patience it takes to work with adult students. I wasn't sure as I was going through school how I was going to use the knowledge TTI gave me, but it all came together and made starting a new carreer easier. I love my new career and am very much looking forward to expanding into new and exciting fields in the industry. I speak with TTI grads every day and they are very happy with how thier careers are taking off. The travel our industry offers is exciting, and I have traveled more this year than I have my whole life. I went on the C.I.T.C students trip to Europe and what an exciting trip that was. I learned so much about Europe and travel in general. I hold TTI responsible for the knowledge I use every day. Thank you for all you have done for me."

Thank You

Hi Kim!

"I meant to write you earlier in the week and let you know how things went, but i got a little busy.

I had a really good interview with Spencer, the manager of Travel Cuts/The Adventure Company... he decided to bring me in for my practicum right there on the spot.

So I started this week, and it's been a little crazy...you are right in saying that it is a busy place …I have to say, it's so neat to see all those documents like paper tickets, e-tickets, credit card charge forms, and all those other ones in a real life setting. Doing the bookings on an airline ticket and having to enter the taxes and such...its all coming back to me! hehe."

Cheers,

Shannon W. Advanced Travel and Airline Graduate

"This is Shayne; I came in last week and picked up my diploma for Advanced Travel and Airline.

I want to thank you very much for giving me the tip on a possible job with Holiday Network. 

I e-mailed my resume right away to Crystal B and next day was called. I went in on Thursday and by five that day landed a position with Holiday Network! Thanks to you!!!!!!

I start on the 12th, looking forward to this new adventure!!"

Thanks again!

Yours Truly,

Shayne B.  Advanced Travel and Airline Graduate

Everything is going fine at North South Travel, and Amanda S., one of your ex-students at TTI, says hello to you. She has the same impression of our teacher, and she said I was lucky having had you as my instructor. She works at North South Travel since 1 and a half year ago.

The last week of my practicum is the next one and it is decisive in a certain way.

"…I started this week with Great Expeditions.

They are a tour operator offering natural history, cultural, arts, sports, ecotourism, etc..  It is just perfect for me, my interest is in all those areas, and the convenience of being located at 25th and Oak.

The owner of Great Expeditions also owns a Hagen's Travel & Cruise agency which is great for me so I will continue to learn about agency work and using my Apollo skills.

Thank you for being there for me on short notice as a reference.  This time around references were not required.  I sold myself!

I hope all is well with you and yours and TTI!

Happy Spring!"

Good morning,

"I am now a flight attendant of Lufthansa German Airlines and I live in Germany.

After I had finished the program and went back to Japan, I looked for some flight attendant jobs.

… At last, I found that Lufthansa was hiring Japanese flight attendant and I really wanted to work for them. "

Thank you.

Best wishes,

Hitomi N. Flight Attendant Graduate

" I was waiting for the call from World Flight Services and yesterday I received the phone call from WFS … they offered me the Cruiseship Passenger service agent  as a part time job.

I did accept that position and from May 1st I will join the training course.

Have a nice day.

Best Regards,"

"I have nothing but great things too say about the flight attendant program I took at the Vancouver campus. Since completing the program I was grateful enough to move to Calgary, Alberta and got on full time with Westjet Airlines. I have been employed as a flight attendant and have been recently working with the training department. I am sooo happy with my career choice and i owe a lot of my happiness to my experiences i had at TTI."

Thanks,

"TTI was an eye opening for me in the tourism industry. I took a Flight Attendant 3 month diploma course. With such a fantastic instructor it's not just about going to school, it's about meeting new friends around the world and their cultures. We learned Geography, World Codes, Flight Attendant's Manual and we did a lot of hands on activities which makes it easier to learn.

We took many field trips along with many laughs. I’m glad to be a TTI- FA graduate...!!"
