Look at me and my fancy credentials!

I had the opportunity to take a course through the Institute of Professional Management to teach the finer points of recruitment. Being that I am a recruiter by day (scrapbooker by night?), I thought it would be beneficial, so I signed up and took the 20 hour on-line course. Granted, I received the CD-Rom in the mail in June and didn't put my nose to the grindstone until November. Regardless, the course took less than the promised 20 hours and I sent off my final exam to the institute for grading and acceptance into my official professional association! I received an email in December that I had passed, but my certificate officially arrived in the mail this month! That's right, I'm now officially a Registered Professional Recruiter, with the fancy letters RPR after my name! Hey, it may not PhD, but I'm pretty proud. See?

Nicely done! A professional association, a certificate (frameable) and fancy letters after your name. Not too shabby and definitely something to be proud of.

Remember now, on your business cards it's supposed to read RPR, FP. For Fancy Pants.

Congrats--well done! Any extra letters you can put after your name add distinction.
