ATTTO supports a number of awards, which recognise businesses making an exceptional commitment to investing in their people through training.
ATTTO A+ Trainee and Modern Apprentice of the Year Awards
In 2011 ATTTO launched its first A+ Trainee and Modern Apprentice of the Year Awards. These awards recognise outstanding commitment to and achievement in training, and trainees who have made a real difference in their workplaces. The awards recognise trainees from each of our sectors (aviation, tourism, travel and museums) as well as a Modern Apprentice of the Year and an overall Supreme Winner.
Winners of the 2011 awards were announced at a celebration event in Wellington on 11 November 2011. The Supreme Winner - apprentice travel agent Samantha Chambers, from United Travel Mairangi Bay - won a $2,000 professional development scholarship, to be used for training of her choice.
ATTTO thanks the A+ awards partners for their support and endorsement of the awards: the Aviation Industry Association (AIA), the Tourism Industry Association of New Zealand (TIA), the Travel Agents Association of New Zealand (TAANZ), and Museums Aotearoa.
