Since the tours department is always on the search for fabulous tour guides (or directors), we are continually training. If you would still like to be trained, email the tours department at TOURS-KCSA@KCPA.EDU and a training time can be set up then. ORRRRRR if you are available on TUESDAY MORNINGS AT 9:00 AM, the TOURS department has office hours and are able and willing to train then!!!! And as always, The TOURS department needs TOUR GUIDES! Being a tour guide is a great way to work on your public speaking skills as well as a great way to earn FREE tickets to Krannert Center Shows!!! If you are interested in becoming a tour guide, keep reading to figure out how to achieve this prestigious position of Krannert Center Tour guide. And remember THERE IS NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TOURS CERTIFICATION!!!
The tours department will be holding ONE MORE certification nights this semester. The date for the certification is MONDAY FEBRUARY 9 AT 6:00 PM.
Also, for those certified tour guides out there, there are plenty of days that need a tour guide as of right now. Also, there are a few special tours already scheduled this semester. Those dates are:
March 5, at 1:00 pm. A group of 125 to 130 would like a tour. We will need 3 to 5 tour guides for this group. So if you can help that would be AWESOME!
And finally, there are some spots open on the KCSA Adboard in the tours department! If you are looking to take some kind of leadership position, build your resume, and/or have a great time, this is the place to do it! Also, there are great benefits for being on the Adboard. Just keep your eyes out for applications and deadlines in notes! Good luck with the beginning of the semester!!!
