ALG Vacations (ALGV) reports success 18 months after launching its ALGVPro certification program. The initiative currently has more than 12,000 alumni.
According to an ALGV press release, ALGVPro certified advisors statistically outperform non-certified advisors, booking 10% more on average. These advisors also sell more Travel Protection Plus, exclusive non-stop vacation flights, and higher value luxury items than non-certified advisors, thereby earning more commissions.
ALGVPro is a self-paced, on-demand online educational program for advisors to learn about the portfolio of destinations, products, brands, services, etc. Online modules cover a wide range of topics, from efficiently operating VAX VacationAccess to selling in Europe to determining the best Travel Protection Plus option for your clients.
“ALG Vacations continues to provide the best educational opportunities to help advisors succeed,” said Jackie Marks, Global Head of Trade Brands. “In an ever-changing industry, we prioritize learning and development so our advisors stay ahead of the curve and are well-prepared to best serve our clients.”

Only ALGVPro Certified Advisors are eligible to win prizes, earn Wavemaker status, and participate in most events, including Family Vacations and Ascend, and receive prior ALGV training, so you can earn more from such events. You can get that. Certified Advisors earn up to 5 continuing education units (CEU) credits from The Travel Institute, receive special marketing materials, and receive one-time discounted air seats on exclusive nonstop vacation flights booked 30 to 60 days in advance. You can enjoy and qualify for. We give away hotel stays and airplane seats every quarter.
According to the ALGV, most advisors start with the recommended path of the certification program and work their way up to the advanced level, but some experienced advisors choose to skip the test in the ALGV 101 module and move straight into the accelerated path. Modules range from three to 11 minutes in length.
“The Recommended Path is great for even the most experienced advisors. I've been with VAX since the beginning and (even I) learned something new,” said Sarah Bonsall, travel advisor at Latitude 21 Travel.
