G'day Australia
Tourism Australia has an annual conference/fam they do every year for those wanting to learn more the country. This is different from ATE, which is very selective to attend. Their conferences are very well ran and the ones I have been to have been incredibly helpful for knowledge learned. Here is their post about it:
We’re excited to announce G’day Australia 2024 will be held in Perth/Boorloo, Western Australia from October 11-23, 2024 (inclusive of travel days, three-day training workshop and four-night Experience Australia post fam trip). G’day Australia 2024 is a combined training workshop and familiarization event held exclusively for Aussie Specialist travel advisors from retail agencies and wholesale travel companies/tour operators from all of Tourism Australia’s key markets.
G’day Australia will take place from October 11-23, 2024 inclusive. The participation fee is USD$520/CAD$700 including accommodation, workshop and familiarization program activities and international round trip flights from the ports of Los Angeles or Vancouver only.
