The SYTA Annual Conference is one of the most sought-after opportunities for those who are passionate about promoting, selling, and providing travel experiences for students. This annual conference will bring together travel planners, suppliers and industry partners who engage actionable collaboration that will advance their student and youth travel business. The valued members of our community will come together to discuss where the industry is headed, reevaluate business practices and products to better meet evolving student travel needs, meet one-on-one with clients to discuss future bookings and make meaningful connections during networking events.

In addition to the SYTA Annual Conference,  SYTA brands serve and promote student group travel worldwide.

 

SYTA conducts independent quantitative research to provide global evidence of the size, trends and importance of student travel, and measures the social impact of travel on students and youth. This information assists our members in achieving data driven strategies for building their businesses.

SYTA’s Center for Student Travel Safety leads the industry in the enhancement and elevation of health and safety protocols and crisis readiness for student group travel experiences. We provide access to practical training, shared resources and best practices for our members and the student travel community.
