Get Ready For BSAP 2019

This week marks the start of the fifth season of the Baxter Student Ambassador Program (BSAP), the only travel and tourism student mentoring program of its kind in Canada offering learning and networking opportunities for aspiring travel industry professionals.

Based on a combination of academic success, industry and community involvement, leadership skills, and a skill-testing webinar presentation, one graduating student from each of our 17 participating schools is designated as the Baxter Student Ambassador.

Plus, two new schools are joining the BSAP family this year:

Each year, amazing opportunities for travel, learning, and networking await the winning Ambassadors. Through inspiring travel prizes, hands-on work experience, professional development, membership opportunities, and special event invitations, these elite students will be empowered as they begin their careers in the exciting world of travel.

With the support of our partners and sponsors, winning Baxter Student Ambassadors will receive their profile published in the special standalone BSAP May 2, 2019 issue of Travel Courier, a one-year membership to ACTA including access to the Learning Centre, a one-year membership to TIAO, invitations to BSAP events in Toronto in May 2019, a once-in-a-lifetime internship or travel opportunity, and access to the new BSAP Alumni Association via LinkedIn.
