Certificate Testimonials
| TUIC Testimonial “It was an absolute honor to be a part of [TUIC]! It was an excellent start for us to be more aware, considerate, and welcoming to all. I particularly enjoyed the live session and discussing the questions presented to us in the chat rooms. It’s always fascinating to hear others’ perspectives on the material or questions, as it helps us to open our minds to other aspects as it relates to someone else. It can only broaden our horizons and help us to be welcoming to all.”  Margo DeRouchie National Sales & Business Development Director Pennsylvania’s Americana Region Vistors Bureau Reading & Berks County, PA | TDP Testimonials “I couldn’t recommend Travel Unity more highly. The [TDP] coaches provide an incredible learning platform and a safe space that expanded my personal knowledge, as well as enabled greater commitment to personal and business action to create a safer workplace where every team member and every stakeholder feels welcome.“ “Thank you for facilitation and pushing us out of our comfort zones. DEI topics can be very tricky, sensitive and difficult and your approach is very manageable and welcoming.” “I would definitely recommend this program, not only to learn about various DEI concepts, but also to listen to what other DMOs are doing as it relates to DEI policies and procedures.“ | CDTP Testimonial “CDTP was an awesome experience and I’m so happy I was able to participate. I haven’t learned all the answers but I now understand the questions. Wish my whole team could participate.”  Karen Trevino, CDTP President & CEO North Little Rock Tourism North Little Rock, AR |
