Advanstar - Travel Agent University

Travel Agent Magazine is the largest non-technical magazine in the world and has been a prominent tool for travel agents worldwide for nearly 70 years. Struggling with an early computer-based training website—tauniv.com—the Magazine turned to Black Hammer Productions for help with the site's artistic and functional redesign.

Coupling Cold Fusion technology with a simplified template structure for their Lessons Online program, Black Hammer was able to deliver a handsome and highly functional computer-based training program for travel industry professionals. The multiple design template format allows for the quick web turnaround of extensive new lessons as they are developed by the magazine. As a result, travel agents worldwide can now take a variety of online lessons and instantly see the results of their exams, the scores of which provide agents with special bonuses when booking excursions represented in the lessons.

Tauniv.com not only promotes industry knowledge but also plays an important role in developing and maintaining Travel Agent Magazine's brand visibility. Recognizing this role, Black Hammer applied its award-winning art department in the overhaul of the site's design and navigation. Tauniv.com currently attracts a substantial advertising presence and offers a highly targeted audience of business professionals. Taken together, the website's features are a comprehensive collection of career development tools, industry awareness forums, and a valuable opportunity for business-to-business contact.
