Lets Get Away Travel now offers Continuing Education Cruises for Professionals

Those in the Medical or Legal professions can take a cruise and earn continuing credits.

Oakland, CA (PRWEB) February 11, 2006 -- Lets Get Away Travel has teamed up with major cruise lines and the University at Sea to offer professionals the opportunity to earn continuing education credits while cruising with family and friends. We are happy to offer our clients something new and exciting in this innovative way to mix business and pleasure without shortchanging either of those important aspects of life.

Accredited programs for professionals - physicians, nurses, dentists and pharmacists, to name just a few - are registered with the appropriate boards for credit. Their subject matter and contact hours vary, but are scheduled so as not to conflict with shore excursions and important on-board activities.

The excellent amenities of the cruise ships - comfortable and well-appointed meeting rooms, state of the art audio-visual equipment, ample exhibit space - make them ideal venues for these functions, whether small groups or large conferences, especially after factoring in luxurious accommodations, gourmet meals, beautiful scenery that changes daily and fascinating ports of call.

An entirely new approach to value-added cruising, the University at Sea is not limited to continuing education programs but considers the course needs of the professional, but also the entertainment needs of the family. Activities for the spouse and children are complimentary.

For a complete schedule of educational cruise offerings throughtout the year, please call: call Margaret Salmond at Lets Get Away Travel at 510-595-4621.                                                         ###
