The value of professional certification. Myth or reality?
Accountants do it. So do consultants, engineers, computer professionals, and public administrators. Fund-raising professionals do it too! What are all these professionals doing? They all participate in professional certification programs offered by leading professional associations. The Association for Healthcare Philanthropy (AHP) offers professional certification to its members through the Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE) Certification Board. The results of a 2001 survey enlighten us on the true value of fund-raising certification.
