Fall Dates Announced for Final Sandals Masterclass Sessions of the Year

by Bruce Parkinson  August 17, 2026
Fall Dates Announced for Final Sandals Masterclass Sessions of the Year

Sandals Masterclass training is now open for registration for Canadian advisors.

Unique Vacations Canada has opened registration for the final five Sandals Masterclass online sessions in 2026, taking place in September and October. 

Hosted by National Training Manager Lorna Richards, the two-hour training sessions are created exclusively for the Canadian market by Unique Vacations Canada. The content dives deep into Sandals and Beaches Resorts by encouraging advisors to start selling beyond price and beyond transactions.    

The Sandals Masterclass is live and will not be recorded.  Additionally, Canadian travel advisors must be certified as a Sandals Elite Advisor as a prerequisite to register for the 2026 Masterclass. 

For those not yet certified, they can click here and complete the online, module-based training at their own pace.  Once Sandals Elite Advisor status has been achieved, travel advisors can then register for a Masterclass session and take their Sandals and Beaches knowledge to the next level. 

Participation in a Sandals Masterclass also allows Canadian travel advisors to: 

  • Earn four ACTA credits towards their Certified Travel Counsellor or Certified Travel Manager accreditation. 
  • Fulfill the educational component required to maintain Sandals Elite Advisor (S.E.A) status. 

Canadian travel advisors can register for any Sandals Masterclass by clicking here.  They can also contact their local Business Development Manager or Inside Sales at 1-800-545-8283 for additional information.  

The Sandals 2026 Canadian Masterclass Fall series takes place 10:00am – 12:00pm local time as follows:
