Peter Deilmann Cruises Hosts First NCMA Webinar

River cruise operator Peter Deilmann Cruises will hold the Niche Cruise Marketing Alliance's inaugural webinar program March 5 from 2 to 3 p.m. EST. The program will teach agents ways and techniques to sell river cruises, particularly ones operated by Peter Deilmann, and will be led by Linda Heckmann, the line's sales director and product expert.

"This is the first in to a series of webinars offering a wide variety of training subjects presented on the web by NCMA member lines," NCMA Executive Director Lawrence Dessler said. "Agents who participate in these webinar programs will satisfy the ongoing education requirement of the Certified Niche Cruise Specialist designation and receive in-depth training in our members' products and marketing techniques."

Agents who complete the Deilmann training will receive a $50 bonus commission certificate on their next sailed Deilmann FIT booking and a $500 bonus commission certificate on their next sailed group of 10 or more passengers.

The webinar is free of charge and can be registered for at www.gotomeeting.com/register/372675935. (DE)
