The Associate Travel Agent Online Manual is made up of many chapters
that may be studied one at a time or all at once. Many people will
choose to print the Online ATA Training Manual and use it as a study
guide. The manual will give you an overview of the Travel Industry
and has all of the information you will need to pass the exam. Your
Online Associate Travel Agent Training Manual and ATA Exam are located
in your private Online ATA Member Office under GT Trends Product.
The ATA Exam is a multiple choice 20-question exam based on the
material in the online ATA Training Manual. This is an auto grading
exam and will automatically present a link to your Credentials Application
when you pass your exam.
Before taking your exam, be sure to have your digital photograph
(preferably passport photo) ready to email to the credentials department.
Please send your digital photo, along with your full name and ATA
ID number, to credentials@gttrends.com . Most Kinko's, MBEs and
Photo Developers will be able to scan your photo for you if you
do not have a scanner, please request a 300 dpi image if possible.
They will probably be happy to put it on a floppy for you so you
can use it over and over.
