Experienced, educated and ethical: That’s what Accreditation in Public Relations (APR) says about you.
Are you ready to take your career to the next level? Public relations professionals who earn the APR (Accreditation in Public Relations) designation have shown a mastery in strategic communications and commitment to the profession. Earning an APR can help you make a better case for a salary increase and a job promotion. Or it can put you in a position for a new role by demonstrating that you have the broad perspective to move from a tactical role to a managerial and/or strategic counselor role.
Please join Central Iowa PRSA chapter leaders and APRs to learn more about earning your APR and the APR preparatory course that begins Saturday, Jan 19, 2019.
