Accreditation: Earn Your ABC

Becoming an Accredited Business Communicator

Is it time you got some R-E-S-P-E-C-T?

NEWSFLASH -- The Houston chapter board has approved reimbursing half of your application and enrollment fees, once you become an ABC!

Accreditation is an IABC professional development program. It offers communicators a way of demonstrating to employers, fellow communicators and themselves their ability to successfully manage and perform those tasks essential to effective organizational communication. Candidates meeting all requirements of the program earn the designation Accredited Business Communicator (ABC).
 

If you are a professional communicator, IABC's accreditation program is a means by which you can gauge your career progress. The ABC following your name tells your peers, current and prospective employers and, perhaps most importantly, you, that you have successfully completed this challenging program.
