In the 1990's, the relocation sector grew quickly in France. In 1995, several companies with years of experience and an established reputation, decided to create the National Association of Relocation and Mobility Professionals (SNPRM = Syndicat National des Professionnels de la Relocation et de la Mobilité).
RELOCATION SERVICE was one of SNPRM's founding members.
The Union's goals are to:
- set up an ethic code for relocation professionals.
- increase membership with companies complying this code.
- promote the profession in private and public sectors, especially to the authorities.
- encourage and develop the profession.
In the world, other associations with similar aims, were created as:
Confederation of British Industry - Employee Relocation Council
Association of Belgium Relocation Agents
Association of Relocation Agents
Swiss Association of Relocation Agents
Canadian Employee Relocation Council
EURA (European Relocation Association), created thanks to SNPRM, gathering European relocation companies fulfilling all requirements.
Today, EURA counts 236 members
EARP (European Academy of Relocation Professionals) is the educational organism of our profession. Its aim is to give to the client companies the insurance of the highest level of professionalism.
