Getting the accreditation has probably had a bigger impact on my career than any other step I’ve taken. Not just for the piece of paper, but for the study that necessarily goes with it, which has rounded out my knowledge in this practice area.

I exited the Accreditation program with a much greater understanding and interest in my practice area, new likeminded connections, and a qualification which is recognised and valued by clients, colleagues and other key stakeholders. While the program is challenging, the benefits and opportunities it brings are well worth the effort.
