The PRSA Oregon Capital Chapter is offering Accreditation in Public Relations (APR) training starting Saturday, April 6th. There will be four Saturday sessions, with two week night sessions to cover information needed to pass the examination for Accreditation in Public Relations. The workshops will guide participants on how to navigate the accreditation process, and is based on the Universal Accreditation Board Study Guide.

APR is a mark of distinction for public relations professionals who demonstrate their commitment to the profession and to its ethical practice. Candidates earn accreditation based on broad knowledge, a strategic perspective and sound professional judgment. The APR is a voluntary certification program for public relations professionals, administered by the Universal Accreditation Board.

Learn the value of APR study in your personal career planning.

Incentives from PRSA National, State and the Salem Capital Chapter cover most of the cost of the APR examination.
