Testimonials
Eliza Voss
Aspen Chamber Resort Association
We hope the business community takes full advantage of the CTO Learning Lab platform we've developed in partnership with the Colorado Tourism Office. It's a great onboarding tool for new employees and helps establish a shared foundation of Aspen-specific knowledge—for both new arrivals and longtime team members. Aspen has always taken pride in delivering exceptional guest service, and we hope this resource becomes a valuable asset for all our frontline employees.
Candance Payne
Prairie Development Corporation
This CTO Learning Lab option helps us reach volunteers and paid staff with interesting videos and details that save training time for tourism venue managers and expand the availability so well. Without the CTO Learning Lab, we would know little about our region or the state so it's a big win for Colorado and our region to have a CTO Learning Labs! I love learning about the other areas of Colorado in such an engaging way!
