At DV we constantly strive to improve our
courses. From
easier navigation to enhanced
teaching tools
and reference materials, our programs seek to
deliver a quality learning experience.
We recently introduced two handy
improvements. First, we've partnered with
TekTrek
to offer dynamic audio tours to several of
Mexico's most visited historical and
ecological attractions. These 40-60 minute
walking tours feature site maps, music,
English narration, photography and music.
Best of all, you download the tours to
your iPod for enjoyment while touring
places like Chichen Itza, Tulum, Cozumel
Island, and other sites.
Our
second enhancement involves our award-winning
Mexico Study Guides. Tired of trying to read
letter-shaped pages
on a horizontal- shaped computer screen? Our
new "Dynamic PDF"
Guides include vibrant photography, indexed
searches for key words and an electronic
format that's simple to use. See these new
documents in our updated Cancun and
Puerto
Vallarta courses.

DV has partnered with Solsierra Destinations
and Windermere Real Estate
to offer a unique lifestyle opportunity:
education for consumers and realtors about
how to enjoy the good life in
Mexico!
With some four million U.S. Baby Boomers turning
50 each year, Mexico's proximity,
affordability, sunny climate, quality medical
care, and friendly hosts will draw thousands
of these retirees to consider
south-of-the-border living options.
Choosing Mexico will attract an audience of
U.S. realtors, consumer and forward-thinking
travel professionals to a series of live
events in six
Western cities. The program will also be
available as an online learning program. At
each educational forum there will be Mexico
developers offering "deeded" property (not
timeshare), state representatives, mortgage
lenders, title companies, and others.

Building on a partnership launched in 2006,
DV has been hired by the United Nations
Foundation and Expedia, Inc to provide
educational development in promoting the
World Heritage Alliance for Sustainable
Tourism.
Our work involves creating both on-line
learning and live training modules for
tourism industry business in and around
UNESCO World Heritage sites. The program
initially focused on five Sites in Mexico's
Yucatan region. Over the next six months the
program will expand to Central America and
the Caribbean.
The World Heritage Alliance's principal
objectives are to: educate customers about the
importance of conservation and responsible tourism to
World
Heritage sites; support community-based
sustainable
development around World Heritage sites; and
foster more sustainable business
practices around World Heritage sites.
