Our Proud Members

IABC Asia-Pacific brings together communication professionals from diverse countries, cultures, and disciplines.

“I was initially nervous about undertaking the certification exam. But having backed myself and my years as a professional communicator, I feel very proud to have achieved SCMP certification.”
Danielle Bond SCMP
“ With so many people calling themselves communication experts, why gamble your company’s reputation by allowing someone who isn’t qualified to manage it?”
Jill Stroeder SCMP
"It is a strong statement to my employer and my professional community that my expertise and experience have been independently verified."
Christine Elmer SCMP
"Through certification, communicators can not only benchmark their professional capabilities, but also establish a framework that helps to motivate and structure continued professional development."
Genevieve Hilton SCMP
"My certification enables me to demonstrate to clients that the standards I work to in delivering their outcomes through communication are global, measurable, ethical and consistent.”
Jonathan Champ SCMP
"Being recognised as a SCMP certificant globally acknowledges I have the skills and experience to do these things well and that’s got to be beneficial for my career. I encourage other experienced communicators in APAC to take the plunge with certification.”
Rita Zonius SCMP

"Certification is the best step you can take in advancing your career and demonstrating value as a communication professional in the organisation you work."
AdrianCropley SCMP
"Gaining a global certification proves you have achieved an internationally recognised standard of communication excellence based on a global understanding of key principles and job competencies.”
Sia Papageorgiou SCMP
"Certification supports the ongoing professional development of communication practitioners and our profession as a whole, so I didn’t hesitate to sit the latest SCMP exam in Melbourne."
Mairi Barton SCMP
"CMP certification provides an opportunity to further develop my skills, learn what areas I need to pay more attention to and obtain independent verification of my experience."
Heather Johnson CMP
"Certification supports the ongoing professional development of communication practitioners and our profession as a whole, so I didn’t hesitate to sit the latest SCMP exam in Melbourne."
Mairi Barton SCMP
"As someone who is working in a commercial consulting environment it’s also a point of difference for me in a very competitive market place. It’s also an assurance for my current and future clients that I’ve been independently assessed by a global certification body at this level."
Alison Senti SCMP
