ABERDEEN, Md. - Marylandian -- James Stech, founder of Sure Point Compass Travel has officially earned the Certified Autism Travel Professional (CATP) designation from the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES).

In conjunction with this milestone, James Stech has announced the launch of a new Travel Advocacy framework and a professional 10-Point Advocacy Checklist designed to help discerning travelers navigate the increasing complexities of the global travel landscape.

The CATP certification equips James and Sure Point Compass Travel with specialized tools and resources to assist families with neurodivergent members. This initiative directly supports the brand's core mission: moving travelers from the "chains of planning" to the "freedom of travel" by removing logistical and sensory friction.

"Travel should be an inclusive experience, but for families with neurodivergent members or specific accessibility needs, the 'friction' of planning can feel insurmountable," said James Stech. "By earning the CATP designation and formalizing our Advocacy pillars, we are reinforcing the Sure Point Compass mission of providing 'Confidence and Peace of Mind.' We are now uniquely qualified to advocate for our clients, ensuring their specific needs are met with the same project-management precision we apply to every curated journey."

The new framework focuses on three pillars of advocacy: Logistical Architecture, Specialized Inclusion, and Consumer Protection. Travelers can now access these resources, including the new Advocacy Checklist, at the agency's dedicated advocacy portal.

Sure Point Compass Travel, an affiliate of the Avoya Travel Network™, specializes in high-end Disney destinations, premium cruise lines, luxury all-inclusive resorts, and curated land-based tours.
