Accreditation in Public Relations (APR) is an incredible way to stand out from the crowd. The Accreditation program is specifically for public relations professionals, administered by the Universal Accreditation Board.

 

APR recognizes those who are leaders in their field and showcases a professional’s high standard of knowledge and excellence in the field.

 

The APR is a distinction worth attaining. Want to know more? Ask two of the local Board members who help with accreditation and can help serve as your guide through the process.
