The ABC List for February 2007
Welcome to the newest monthly edition of the ABC List. The ABC List
serves 644 professional communicators.
This newsletter is a forum for accredited communicators, but more
importantly, those communicators interested in learning more about
becoming accredited, the value of accreditation and the process to
attain accreditation. If you have a question, a topic for discussion or
something you’d like to see in the ABC List, e-mail onu-@iabc.com.
If your chapter is holding a workshop, fun shop, exam prep session, exam
date, pinning ceremony or the like, let me know and I’ll publicize your
event here in the ABC List.

*** Upcoming Teleseminar: “Preparing for Your Accreditation Exam”
This session will focus on providing you with an in-depth understanding
of how to prepare in order to successfully complete the four-hour
written and half-hour oral exam. It is designed to take the mystery (and
much of the anxiety) out of the process and will provide insights into
preparing for the exam, as well as managing your time (and your mind!)
during testing.
This teleseminar is designed for anyone who is already an accreditation
candidate, but has value to anyone considering entering the
accreditation process.
Details:
When: Thursday, 3 May 2007
Hours: 8-9 a.m. PACIFIC STANDARD TIME and 4-5 p.m. PACIFIC STANDARD
TIME. You may select the 8 a.m. or 4 p.m. session when you register.

IABC/Chicago to hold exam March 10
IABC/Chicago will administer the accreditation exam on Saturday, 10
March 2007. The chapter has limited space available for additional
test-takers. If you want to get the exam out of the way now – rather
than waiting for the June conference – contact Maryellen Thielen at
(630) 955-4830 or mthi-@calamos.com.

The next accreditation exam will be held at the International Conference
on 23 June 2007, from 1-6pm, at the Hilton New Orleans Riverside in New
