Education is the foundation for the existence of the Dallas Fort Worth Business Travel Association. We were founded by a small group of travel industry leaders that wanted to raise the knowledge and professionalism of those individuals whose careers were in managing or selling travel related services. Each of our monthly meetings is designed to provide current, leading edge information and knowledge sharing among our membership, or to create a comfortable social environment where networking and peer recognition can be accomplished informally.
DFWBTA supports the pursuit of professional certification through the National Business Travel Association, their programs, and their educational offerings. Annual scholarships are awarded to local high school seniors to pursue higher education in the hospitality or travel management field, and to association members to enable them to attend the annual national conference. NBTA, and NBTA Foundation (formerly the Institute of Business Travel Management), also offer educational scholarships to a variety of programs. Please access the information below for additional details.
