Briony Key spoke to some agents who went on a Club Med ski educational to Arcs Extreme.
“The Club Med product is very specific so on an educational you get to see what the holiday would be like for yourself. At Club Med the food is good, and sport facilities very structured so that everyone has the chance to advance their abilities and take part.”
Gary Reid, managing director, Nomad Travel, London
“Usually educationals are a bit more involved, where as Club Med give the agents more of a holiday where they can actually sample the product themselves and gain an in-depth knowledge of a particular resort or village.”
George Kuomi, director, Kenwood Travel, London
“This was my first time on a Club Med educational and I thought it was wonderful. With other short-haul educationals I have been on there has been so much packed into a short space of time that by the end of the trip you can’t remember one hotel from another. I feel I will be able to sell the Club Med product confidently now I have experienced.
