Course Overview

What is Travel Management? Who is responsible to manage the travel activities within an organization? Travel management is the management of business-related travel activities and expenses. It may include tracking and reporting on the travel activities of an organization.

Travel management also covers financial and safety considerations of corporate travel. Executive leaders usually run on time crisis. Smart executives plan this in advance and assign dedicated assistants or secretaries to do the planning for them.

Efficient organizations realize that in order to reach maximum yield and productivity, they will need the help of a dependable assistant who can take up responsibilities and proactive steps. Travel Management is one of the core responsibilities of such assistants that requires extreme planning and coordination.

The more an organization sends its employees on business trips, the more complex the planning and managing of corporate travel becomes. A travel management administrator researches and books domestic and international flights, road movement and transportation, hotel accommodation bookings, and guides the officials with their destination information.

Knowledge of appropriate flight regulations and travel documentation is vital for a travel administrator. Due to ever-changing schedules and business meetings, a travel administrator has to be an outstanding organizer and communicator.
