Jan 06`12 - TICO Releases New Study Manual
The Travel Industry Council of Ontario (TICO) has updated its Education Standards Study Manual. The Manual is updated periodically to account for changes to the Travel Industry Act, 2002 and its Regulation.

The Study Manual is also available for purchase in a coil-bound edition for $15.00 plus tax, from CITC.
Individuals planning to write one of the TICO Exams in the near future should note the following dates:
• Exams written on or before January 15, 2012 will be based on the old version of the Study Manual.
• Exams that will be written on or after January 23, 2012 will be based on the new version of the Study Manual.
Please note that no exams are being scheduled from January 16, 2012 to January 22, 2012 while the testing site is being updated
