Many of the events help promote innovation and progress in transportation by research, facilitating the dissemination of information and encouraging the implementation of research results. Each event provides participants with the latest industry information and news to assist them in understanding the role of the transportation professional in the 21^st century. 

On October 29, 2001, the NTC hosted its first-ever Urban Transportation Summit, a half-day event focused on fostering dialogue on transportation and economic & employment development in the Baltimore-Washington region. Annually, the NTC hosts Job Shadow Day, the Summer Transportation Institute and a Research Symposium. These events have been the staple of the Center since their inception and they bring together professionals and students of all ages. NTC also has co-sponsored the Greater Baltimore Area Transportation Conference along with the Baltimore County Chamber of Commerce each summer. The Suburban Maryland Transportation Priorities Conference is also co-sponsored with the Greater Washington Board of Trade each fall. Both of these conferences have dealt with transportation planning and funding.
