Those who earn and maintain this prestigious credential demonstrate not only a mastery of skills, but a commitment to ongoing professional development and education, for the betterment of the industry and the employees and families we serve. We proudly welcome the newest CRPs® into our growing community.”
The CRP® program was introduced in 1990 to formally recognize individuals who demonstrate a comprehensive knowledge of the principles and practices of U.S. employee relocation. More than 11,000 individuals have earned the credential since its inception. CRPs® retain their designation by maintaining membership in the association and earning 30 recertification credit hours within each three-year period following their initial certification, ensuring they remain current on evolving industry trends.
