APRIL MEETING
Please
join us Thursday, April 15, for our monthly Madison PRSA Networking Luncheon.
TOPIC: April
is APR Month!
You've got
the drive, determination and diligence to succeed in public relations - now
discover how accreditation can help your career. The Accreditation in Public
Relations (APR) designation proves you have successfully demonstrated
competency in the knowledge, skills and abilities required to practice public
relations effectively in today's business arena.
Barb Hernandez, APR, will walk you through the APR process. Accredited since
1990, Barb has worked in the public relations field for more than three
decades. She recently participated in a Readiness Review Panel in Appleton and
has been chairperson of the APR Committee in Madison for two years. She's also
assisted in two Jumpstart sessions for Wisconsin practitioners in the past
three years.
Barb says accreditation is easier - and more important - than you might think.
Come join us for an interactive session on moving up that next rung on the PR
career ladder: the APR.
