Earn credits toward CMP or SCMP certification

In addition to being a resource for lifelong learning, IABC Advance supports the Global Communication Certification Council (GCCC) certification program.

Please note that completion of these courses does not guarantee successfully passing either certification exam.

If you are already a certified through GCCC, completing IABC Advance courses may earn you points toward the required annual maintenance of your certification. IABC applies standard measurements for awarding appropriate credits for completed courses.
