Travel for a living...yes please!

Realize your dreams by turning your passion for travel into a career. Since 1976, we have been training & certifying people to become professional tour directors & guides. Over 8,000 alumni live & work on all 7 continents. We’re thrilled to have a 93% job placement rate for our graduates. Many tour companies will only hire ITMI certified alumni because they have received the highest quality hands-on training in the industry.

The 15-day course is held in cities like San Francisco, Boston, Vancouver, Canada & Washington DC & consists of 40% classroom & 60% in-the-field training.

ITMI is for individuals who dream of exploring the world, want to make a positive impact by sharing their passion for travel & building bridges of understanding between people from around the globe. Tour Directors & Guides have a unique opportunity to become ambassadors of goodwill, to demonstrate respect for other cultures, traditions & the environment. #ItAllStartedWithITMI
