Education is the foundation for the existence of the FBTA-Gulf Coast. FBTA-Gulf Coast was founded in 1988 by a group of travel industry leaders that wanted to raise the knowledge and professionalism of those individuals whose careers were in managing or selling travel related services. Each of our monthly meetings is designed to provide current, leading edge information to our membership, and to create a comfortable social environment where networking and peer recognition can be accomplished informally.
FBTA-Gulf Coast supports the pursuit of professional certification through the National Business Travel Association’s programs and educational offerings. Due to our affiliation with NBTA, NBTA Foundation (formerly Institute of Business Travel Management) and the CPC (Chapter President’s Council) we are able to offer educational scholarships for a variety of programs.
NetSmart NetSmart(tm) is a web-based distance learning and educational program that allows NBTA Direct Members and Chapter Direct Members to participate in a live interactive forum on business travel industry issues and simultaneously view presentations.
Certified Corporate Travel Executive (CCTE) The CCTE Program is designed for business travel management professionals who want to enhance their knowledge, skills and productivity.

Global Travel Management Exchange Forums (GTMEF) The NBTA Global Travel Management Exchange Forums (GTMEF) are small, highly focused, discussion groups. The GTMEF's provide global travel managers with the opportunity to meet with their peers and explore, in-depth, the global travel management topics and issues that are most important to them.
Fundamentals of Business Travel Management (CTE) What is the Fundamentals of Business Travel Management course? For most companies, travel is the second largest controllable expense. In order to control the expense, you must know how to manage travel spend. The Fundamentals of Business Travel Management course is NBTA's starter course focusing on the basics of business travel management. This two-day workshop is designed as a guide to the primary components of managed travel. Attendees will learn how each component intersects with the required competencies and skill sets needed in business travel management. The Fundamentals course teaches participants to maximize cost containment, improve efficiency and create a managed travel culture in a company. Attendees will hear expert facilitators on the subjects of travel safety and security, travel spending trends and benchmark metrics. An overview of business travel technology will be included along with a comprehensive discussion on travel policy, savings opportunities and calculating the ROI of a managed travel program.
What is the CTE designation? Attendees who successfully complete the Fundamentals of Business Travel Management course, either the two-day workshop or online, will be eligible to earn the Corporate Travel ExpertSM (CTE) designation by passing the CTE exam online. Carrying the CTE designation following your name shows that you have mastered the fundamental tenets of corporate travel management.
