Value of Accreditation Revealed in Latest Global Study

What do supervisors and clients say is the difference between accredited
individuals and those who are not accredited? What do accredited members say
are the top three benefits from accreditation? Can accreditation help
jump-start your career?

The findings from the Value of Accreditation global survey of ABCs and their
employers and clients were released today and provide insight into what the
value of accreditation is to individuals, employers/clients and the
profession. One key finding was that accredited business communicators
(ABCs) clearly recognize the value of strategic communication practices to
organizations and to the enhancement of the communication profession. Study
findings also indicate the high value accredited members, their supervisors
and clients place on IABC’s credential program.

Preliminary findings on the value of accreditation are the subject of an
upcoming article in Communication World. To find out more about the
