Accredited in Public Relations (APR)

Accredited in Public Relations (APR) is a mark of distinction for public relations professionals who demonstrate their commitment to the profession and to its ethical practice. These professionals are selected based on broad knowledge, strategic perspective and sound professional judgment via the Examination for Accreditation in Public Relations.

The Examination for Accreditation is overseen by the Universal Accreditation Board, which is made up of representatives from PRSA and nine other communications organizations.

The National School Public Relations Association (NSPRA) offers a wide breadth of resources wherever you are in the process.
