Why get Certified?
Certification brings global recognition, demonstrates knowledge and expertise, enhances your career and shows your commitment to strategy, ethics and your ability to solve problems and drive business results through strategic communication.
The Global Communication Certification Council® (GCCC®) certification program is based on the Global Standard of the Communications Profession – set out by IABC – and both the CMP® and SCMP® certifications were developed to conform to ISO (17024) and are internationally accredited by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB).
IABC provides additional career development opportunities through its Career Assessment tool, the Career Roadmap, and training courses. In addition, the GCCC’s certification programs are available to both IABC members and non-members. More information can be found at https://gcccouncil.org.
