Partner Education & Training

Destination SWLA

Visit Lake Charles offers a free educational program for our partners in Southwest Louisiana called Destination SWLA. This program not only covers area information, including restaurants, activities, and unique itineraries, but it also introduces participants to what we do at the Convention and Visitors Bureau, the programming we offer, and what our mission is. This program is great for hospitality, arts, entertainment, and recreation employees, regardless of if they’ve been in the industry for 10 days or 10 years! 

To sign-up to participate in the onboarding program, please fill out the form below. If you would like to schedule an individual training at your property for multiple staff, or if you have any questions, please reach out to Hannah Holcom by email at hholcom@visitlakecharles.com or at 337-502-4353.
