A new chapter begins šŸ

After 15 years of supporting travel industry professionals across Australia and seven successful years in New Zealand, we're incredibly proud to announce the official launch of the Travel Industry Mentor Experience Canada.

This exciting milestone means even more travel, tourism, hospitality, cruise and aviation professionals will have access to the power of mentorship, helping develop future leaders and strengthen our industry for years to come.

A huge thank you to everyone who has helped make this expansion possible, especially long time TIME Mentor and Advisor Steve Farrelly, as well as Edith Beaudoin, who will lead the program in Canada.

TIME Canada officially launches in Toronto on 23 September 2026, and we are Calling Mentors, Mentees and Partners in Canada to get involved.

TIME Canada will offer the same proven mentoring framework that has underpinned success in Australia and New Zealand, while being locally guided and supported by Canadian industry leaders.

Canadian professionals at all career stages are encouraged to get involved:
šŸ‘‰ Mentees seeking guidance, confidence and career longevity
šŸ‘‰ Mentors looking to give back, share experience and support the next generation
šŸ‘‰ Partners and supporters committed to developing people and strengthening the travel, hospitality and tourism industry in Canada and globally.

As a not‑for‑profit organisation, TIME relies on the generosity of its mentors, supporters and sponsors to deliver its programs and extend its reach. So, if you know someone in the Canadian travel industry, we would be grateful if you could tag them below and help us spread the word.

We are proud to announce our first-ever memorial scholarship, honouring Industry Leader Richard Froggatt. This prestigious new initiative will be offered as part of TIME's Program 68, commencing 19 August 2026, with applications closing 17 July 2026.

Open exclusively to aviation industry professionals, the Richard Froggatt Memorial Scholarship celebrates the legacy of Richard, who devoted more than three decades to shaping the Australian airline and tourism sector.

Along with senior airline roles with British Airways then most notably with Lauda Air, he served as Chairman of the Board of Airline Representatives of Australia (BARA), was Board Member of the Tourism Task Force Australia & Melbourne Convention & Visitors Bureau along with President of SkƄl International.

Richard’s life and career were defined not only by his professional success but also by his commitment to people, partnerships, and progress within the travel and aviation communities.

The Richard Froggatt Memorial Scholarship has been established to honour Richard’s enduring impact and to support the next generation of aviation professionals as they continue to strengthen and evolve the industry he loved.

Gaye Wood, Richard’s life and business partner says, ā€œRichard would be so proud of this special Scholarship in his name. He adored helping people develop, grow and go on to more successful lives and careers. This TIME Scholarship is the perfect fit to honour his legacy."

The introduction of this memorial scholarship further reinforces TIME’s mission as a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to developing talent across the travel, tourism, hospitality, cruise, and aviation sectors. By connecting emerging professionals with experienced mentors, TIME continues to play a vital role in fostering leadership, resilience, and innovation within the industry.

Applications are now open, and aviation professionals at all stages of their careers are encouraged to apply. The program offers invaluable access to industry-leading mentors, practical insights, and a supportive network designed to accelerate personal and professional growth.
