Statement about Other Certifications

Recently, an e-mail solicitation was sent to a number of APA and AICP members and leaders, which sought to promote a new certification for planners.

Neither APA nor its professional institute AICP have been involved in any certifications developed by outside entities.

Neither APA nor its professional institute are in any way affiliated with any certification except AICP.

No other certification can imply a relationship with APA or AICP; and in any instance where such a relationship is implied, all parties will be notified by formal letter of our intention to protect our own certification and all our legal rights.

This statement may be modified by APA as appropriate in the future.
