About NTRP
North Texas Relocation Professional (NTRP) is an organization that educates and gives networking opportunities for relocation professionals. They also support charities, as they care about their community. In fact, they have three main goals: Networking, education and outreach. All of this is reflected in their mission: “Driving Mobility with Purpose in North Texas!”
They have a long history that backs up their amazing work and experience. NTRP was born in 1989 under the “Dallas Women in Relocation” name. And the first networking event ever happened in 1991. The next year, they changed the name to Dallas Relocation Professionals, so they could include men.
But then, they merged with North Texas Relocation Council and became the organization and forum we know nowadays.
They state they’re appropriate for “Corporate Relocation Professionals”, “Relocation Management Company”, “Household Goods Moving & Storage”, “Residential Real Estate Brokerage”. Among other relocation corporations and relocation service sectors.
As for their charitable work, right now they support the Worldwide ERC Foundation and Interfaith Housing Coalition. They also offer scholarships for at least two high school seniors that meet certain requirements. This includes having been relocated more than 50 miles because of their parents’ relocation.
The 2024 applications for the scholarship are now open, so hurry up; the deadline is April 1st.
Do you want to know a cool thing about them? They have their very own annual Saul Gresky Awards. This award is granted to a corporate or relocation service professional that achieves the high standards of the industry and the expectations of these awards.
That includes someone that has great customer service, keeps the good image of the profession, and inspires other relocation professionals to support each other.
Good news! You can actually nominate whoever you think is the perfect relocation professional to receive the next Saul Gresky Award. And nominations for this year’s awards are up; just fill the form.

Have Fun Learning a New Skill for Your Relocation Career
You just registered for a new event to keep updated on the relocation industry while having a great time. Cool! Now it’s time for us to tell you our secret on something good that you can do for your career that’s also fun. Learn a new language! Though, if we’re honest it’s not that much of a secret, right?
Bilingualism is a highly demanded skill for any job. This is because of the globalized world we live in nowadays. Everything and everyone are connected, so founders want to make sure their companies can reach international markets as well. And employees that know a second or third language are valuable for that.
That being said, imagine how much a new language would impact in your relocation and mobility career! After all, you deal with clients and employees from different countries with different cultures and languages. You’d make them feel comfortable in their relocation process.
If that’s something you’re interested in, Fluency Corp can help you! We offer online or onsite corporate language training for you and your employees. Classes are customized to the job and needs, and they’re instructed by a native teacher. So you can make sure that you’ll learn truly useful things you’ll apply in real life.
If you invest in these classes for you and your employees, you’ll see more efficiency as a work team. You’ll also become more valuable as a working individual and as a company. But don’t take it from us, check our testimonials.
