Tourism Cares operates one of the industry’s most exciting auction experiences.  Each year at the NTA Annual Convention, a live auction features items generously donated by NTA tour operator, supplier and DMO members.  It's a perennial favorite featuring the world champion auctioneer, Shane Ratliff.

 

 

The Tourism Cares Experience the Industry Student Program is an opportunity for travel, tourism, and hospitality students to shadow industry professionals at the annual NTA Convention. The program allows students to explore different sectors of the tourism industry while learning more about various career paths.

 

Participating students were able to shadow tour operators, tour suppliers,  and destination management organizations during the Tour & Travel Exchange business appointments at the convention.
