Calling all APMP Practitioners Seeking Professional Accreditation this Year!

Face-to-face interviews for Professional Level Accreditation are being offered in conjunction with this year's APMP annual conference in Orlando, FL. To register your interest, please contact Cathy Day, PPF.APMP, APMP Chief Examiner ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ), by March 19, 2010. The number of interviews will be limited so contact Cathy as soon as possible to increase your chance of scheduling one.

Interviews will be scheduled over a three-day period: Tuesday, June 1; Wednesday, June 2; and Thursday, June 3, 2010.  The APMP interviewers will be Cathy Day and Charlie Divine, PPF.APMP.  To serve as many interview applicants as possible, two more APMP accredited interviewers will be available: Tony Birch, PPF.APMP, and Jon Williams, PPF.APMP.

To guarantee your interview place and ensure the assessment process can be completed before the interview, formally register and pay for your Professional Level application by May 1, 2010.

Also by May 1, 2010, submit your Proposal Profession Impact Paper (PPIP), a PowerPoint presentation, to Cathy. This will ensure that your assessment has been carried out and that the competency questions, which you will be required to answer during your interview, can be developed and sent to you in advance.
