Lilly Koranteng, Professional PR Certificate

As someone who is at the beginning of my communications journey, I was inspired by those I saw on LinkedIn and my work environment who spoke about the CIPR qualification

It was definitely something I wanted to complete in order to progress in my career but also learn for myself. I strongly believe in continuous learning and self-development. I enjoyed getting back into grind/study mode as it felt like I was back at university again.

Having that focus time to read, take in the lessons and learn something new was really enjoyable. I loved engaging with my tutors and asking them questions. I enjoyed meeting other professionals from different spheres within the industry.

Studying has allowed me to apply all the knowledge at my workplace, especially evaluation. The importance of evaluation and using key models to apply to my practice of work has been the most rewarding thing.

PROFESSIONAL PR Certificate

I think my qualification will give me credibility and will hopefully open more doors for other opportunities. I would most definitely recommend studying again!
