Accreditation: Earn your ABC

Fri, 11 Apr 2008 16:31:46 GMT

Becoming an Accredited Business Communicator

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.

For complete information about the accreditation process, go to http://www.iabc.com/abc/. If you’re interested in becoming accredited, contact Susie McMichael, the IABC/Houston Accreditation Chair.

Genealogy For IABC/Houston

Mon, 07 Jan 2008 00:39:32 GMT

A Genealogy For IABC/Houston By Downs Matthews, ABC The place is Houston, Texas. The year, 1946. A young man named Walter Beach, editor of The Humble Way, published by the Humble Oil and Refining Company of Houston, has just returned from a business meeting of the Southwestern Association of Industrial Editors (SAIE) held in Little Rock, AK. He is inspired to start a chapter of SAIE for industrial editors of Houston. Beach telephones a young woman named Dotty James, who has just been employed as an editor of The Pecten by Shell Oil Company. She agrees with Beach’s proposal to organize a chapter of SAIE in Houston. In September, they meet with 15 other house organ editors at Bill Williams’ Chicken House on South Main St. They agree. Houston should join SAIE. A few days later, Beach, James, and another Humble employee, Jack Shannon, travel to Tulsa where SAIE is holding its annual conference. Their application for membership is accepted and a charter is issued for a Houston...

Past Presidents - IABC/Houston

Mon, 08 Jan 2007 20:13:49 GMT

Past Chapter Presidents Reflect an Evolving Communications Industry In 1946 a group of founding members chartered the Gulf Coast Chapter of the Society of Associated Industrial Editors (SAIE) which later became the Southeast Texas Industrial Editors (STIE) before it merged with and became an IABC chapter in 1970. Since that time, presidents of the chapter have reflected the changes in the communications industry. Early leaders were almost exclusively from the energy industry and its supporting services companies. And, for the first 24 years, they were all men. Leaders of the past 20 years, while still rich with energy company alumni, include a variety of industries, agencies and entrepreneurs. Our roles have evolved well beyond the industrial editor The following list contains the names of some communicators who have become legends in our field. Many of the early leaders are now gone, and others have changed jobs multiple times. We salute these past and future presidents of...
