@Samjb I do think that it depends on the community and how the local chapter promotes it. Can't send DM ;-) #accredchat

@JodiEchakowitz However, new APR exam often contains more than one right answer per question, it's tricky #accredchat
@JodiEchakowitz When I took the APR (1998, olden days) there were no multiple choice either. #accredchat
I am with @vedo There are many texts on the list for the APR exam but Cutlip is the most use in exam #accredchat http://twurl.nl/5y6hhi
Does anyone have any specific questions about accreditation and the process? I am an APR but others are ABC etc #accredchat
RT @vedo: RT @JodiEchakowitz: PR peeps: Interested in @IABC @PRSA @CPRS accreditation? Join us for #accredchat at 2pm ET today.
Excellent article for #accredchat about the value of APR for PR folks http://twurl.nl/lv6qdh (via @lindajacobson)
@BethHarte I totally missed this one today, was in a client meeting, so sorry #accredchat You will rock the test @vargasl
Yes RT @JodiEchakowitz: Since @kamichat @shonali @arikhanson @bethharte are all unavailable today, #accredchat will be postponed
Just a reminder that we will not have #accredchat today, everyone seems tied up with other stuff
@shonali I am completely tied up this Friday at the time people want to do #accredchat do you and @arikhanson want to take over?
Just realized that I missed a lot in #accredchat My @replies wasn't picking everything up. Reading transcript http://twurl.nl/4y0dny
RT @wthashtag: You can also find a transcript of #accredchat tweets at http://wthashtag.com/Accredchat all in print-friendly format.
Okay guys, the official #accredchat is over since it has been an hour, but please feel free to continue talking amongst yourselves.
The problem is, most of you that are here don't NEED accreditation, you obviously are looking to learn and expand #accredchat
@MomonMars You can be consistent with that, but you are not everyone..Some others may need process and learning more is good. #accredchat
RT @BillSledzik...Problem is you have to regulate it with a licensing structure. Good luck ... Too many 1st Amendment issues. #accredchat
As @shel says, accred doesn't make you a superstar, but it does make you more consistent #accredchat
RT: BPrickett: In the same way that APRs shouldn't gloat about designation, those w/o shouldn't dismiss. [it] as unnecessary. #accredchat
Which brings us to a long debated idea: Should PR practitioners be required to be certified in order to practice? #accredchat
My opinion is that accreditation is really helpful at early to mid career, any other opinions on that? #accredchat
Someone mentioned that after 25 years in comms they don't see value, as long as you're always learning it doesn't matter #accredchat
@BethHarte Also, for APR, questions are adjusted every year, they ask for advice of those in the know, I have been asked #accredchat
@BethHarte In the case of APR the social media section is a very small part of the overall test #accredchat
You need to pick the exam based on the organization you most want to be involved with later, since there is maintenance. #accredchat
PRSA also assigns a mentor if you want one. Also, you have a readiness review where you are coached #accredchat
It's hard to say with is better, they all do a very good job of expanding your knowledge level, I am APR since 1999 #accredchat
Same for APR RT shonali: @JodiEchakowitz As long/short as you want to make it. For ABC, 1: Apply. 2: Portfolio. 3: Exam. #accredchat
For those of you thinking of earning your accreditation, what is your biggest concern? #accredchat
For me, as a professional, the APR helped me to put a process to my programs. #accredchat
