Resources and instructions for candidates and Readiness Review panelists.

"The value of Accreditation is that, at minimum, it lets others know that you possess the skills required to be an effective practitioner and that you have a working knowledge and understanding of the profession and its development that sets you apart from others. To a prospective employer, Accreditation signals your seriousness about the profession and that you possess a certain level of competency and preparedness."

— Ted Richardson, APR Vice President, Corporate Relations United Insurance Co. of America

Testimonials

"One of the biggest obstacles cited when I'm recruiting colleagues to consider pursuing Accreditation is a lack of time. I usually recount the months prior to my own examination experience as I prepared. "Crunch time" for me was the last trimester of my wife's pregnancy -- our third. I spent the six weeks prior to and four days after her delivery with textbooks in hand. I even had a little time at the hospital to study. The point I usually make is that, if you're focused on bettering yourself professionally, there's always time...a few minutes before work, during lunch or with colleagues over an after-work drink. The investment of an hour here and there will be a career of returns."
