Company Profile

Academic Travel Abroad, Inc.

Company Overview

Academic Travel Abroad, Inc. is an educational travel provider for some of this country’s most prestigious organizations. We believe in celebrating and learning about the diversity of people and cultures through travel and education. Riding the post-war wave of interest in travel to Europe, ATA launched operations in 1950 by assisting universities and cultural institutions in the creation of group travel programs for their members. Today, ATA is a leader in cultural and educational group travel and serves partners such as, Smithsonian Institution, The New York Times, Hearst, Thrillist, Yale Alumni Academy, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

As a business-to-business enterprise, ATA is frequently the "brand behind the brand." However, the company does have a separate, public-facing brand: CET Academic Programs operates study abroad programs for college students. Tying together all brands and services are ATA’s focus on innovative program design, collaborative approach to partnership, steadfast insistence on quality; justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion; and a commitment to environmental sustainability. Every ATA program is designed to change perspectives, deepen understanding, and engage communities, showcasing the stories—both told and untold--of the places and people we visit.
