This document summarizes a study exploring professional credentialing in public relations. The study examined how credentialing impacts careers in a regional market and its relationship to professionalism and ethics. Key findings include that credentialing can enhance one's image and career, though it may not necessarily make someone more ethical. The study had limitations but provides insights that further credentialing research in other areas could help address professional challenges in establishing public relations as a credible field.

8 Professional Competence and Training
Introduction
In this chapter we focus on the ethical and legal aspects of professional compe- tence and the ongoing education and training required for mental health profes- sionals. We discuss issues related to professional licensing and certification as well as approaches to continuing education.
Ability is not easy to assess, but competence is a major concern for mental health professionals. Striving for competence is a lifelong endeavor. We are called upon to devote the entire span of our careers to developing, achieving, maintain- ing, and enhancing our competence. Competence at one point in our career does not assure competence at a later time. To remain current, we must take active steps to maintain our knowledge and skills. Continuing education is particularly impor- tant in learning about emerging areas of practice.
Barnett and Johnson (2015) remind us to consider the scope of our compe- tence. Being competent in one area of counseling does not mean we are compe- tent or feel comfortable handling client concerns in other areas. It is important to accurately assess each area of our practice to ensure competence. In one study examining school counselors’ comfort and perceived competence in addressing student issues pertaining to spirituality, 80% of participants felt they needed to improve their competence level even though they said they were comfortable with these issues (Smith-Augustine, 2011). Practitioners and students can develop com- petence both as generalists and as specialists. A generalist is a practitioner who is able to work with a broad range of problems and client populations. A specialist is a worker who has developed competence in a particular area of practice such as career development, addiction counseling, eating disorders, or family therapy.
Definitions of competence center around a practitioner’s ability to perform cer- tain tasks and roles appropriately and effectively (Johnson et al., 2008). Competent practitioners have the necessary self-awareness, knowledge, skills, and abilities to provide effective services. To apply our knowledge and skills competently, we must consistently attend to our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. As we saw in Chapter 2, self-care and wellness are basic to being able to function com- petently in our professional work and are considered ethical issues.
We give the education and training of mental health professionals special attention because of the unique ethical issues involved. Indeed, ethical issues must be considered from the very beginning, starting with admission and screening procedures for graduate programs. One key issue is the role of training programs in safeguarding the public when it becomes clear that a trainee has problems that are likely to interfere with professional functioning.

Introduction
Human services professionals are drawn to the field for many different reasons. Regardless of how one enters human services, it operates on five important values that serve as the guiding framework and drive the work done to help others. Acceptance, tolerance, individuality, self-determination, and confidentiality are the values that guide professional behavior and service delivery. Understanding these values is critical in becoming an effective helper.
Toggle DrawerHide Full Introduction
In addition to these core values, the research has clearly defined suggested characteristics that are needed to be an effective helper. However, to be effective in the work that is done to create change, professionals need to have an understanding of themselves and their values first. Without this understanding of how personal values, biases, and opinions impact the helping situation, the helping environment is ineffective. Being able to create a neutral helping situation where a client feels they are heard, valued, and protected when vulnerable is necessary for effective helping to occur.
This week you will embark on a self-assessment journey challenging you to look at who you are and the impact this might have on how you develop professionally. The information you obtain about yourself will be important as you continue to develop your skills to become an effective helper.
Week 1 - Assignment 1 - Human Services Values – 250 Words
Reflect on the human services values described in this unit's reading in An Introduction to Human Services, addressing the following:
· Which human services value is the most difficult for you to practice? Include an example of a situation that encompasses that value and why it would be difficult for you to use it.
· Which human services value is the most important to you and why?
· How might your understanding of the values that guide practice help you determine your future professional development needs?

LPC Managing Differences and Difficult PopulationsGlenn Duncan
This is part 4 of 5 in a 30 hour lecture series on Clinical Supervision for Mental Health Professionals. This was made for the Approved Clinical Supervisor Certificate through the NBCC. This interactive workshop focuses on the major elements of managing differences between supervisors and supervisees and issues surrounding working with difficult supervisees. In this workshop, participants will learn about the influence of individual, cultural and developmental differences between supervisors and supervisees. Different aspects of individual differences are covered (e.g., differences in belief systems and theoretical orientation between supervisor and supervisee). Different aspects of cultural differences are covered as are different aspects of developmental differences (e.g., supervisee and supervisor experiential levels). Participants will discuss areas of difficulties with supervisees, including an introduction to progressive discipline policies and due process, transference and countertransference, and other generic problems with supervisees. Teaching methods include lecture, interactive exercises and group participation/discussion.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

1. Public Relations Credentialing in Practice:
Exploring Professionalism, Ethics and Certification in a
Regional Market
Kristin Legere
PRL 605 Public Relations Theory
S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications
Syracuse University
December 13, 2014
2. BACKGROUND/THEORIES
Debate on the merits of mandatory
vs. voluntary credentialing continues
The Excellence Theory
Strategic Communications
Management
Professionalism
Ethics
Case study explores influence on
career development in a smaller
regional market
3. RESEARCH QUESTIONS
With so many varying views on the value of
credentialing, how does it impact a regional
practitioner?
RQ1: How and to what extent do practitioners pursue
credentialing and how does voluntary certification
impact their career path?
RQ2: How and to what extent do practitioners view
credentialing as a component of professionalism and
ethical practice?
RQ3: How and to what extent would mandatory
credentialing (licensing) resolve the professional image
and ethical issues surrounding PR practice?
4. FINDINGS
Credentialing is important to the profession’s
status
It can serve as a good reminder to do things
ethically but most likely does not make a
practitioner more ethical
Certification has the ability to enhance a
practitioner’s image and can have a tangible
career impact
Some practitioners would be open to licensing
Study limitations included:
Bad record keeping; the number of interviews
conducted; bias of interviewer
5. APPLICATION TO PROFESSION
Many challenges to overcome to make
credentialing work
Profession encompassing talented communicators
continues to face image and awareness issues
Gaining more buy-in from professionals for
credentialing programs could make a difference
6. FUTURE RESEARCH/LEARNINGS
Research could be expanded to other states,
regions, even globally
Further exploration could include:
The role of professionalism and ethics
Credentialing vs. higher education
Raising awareness of credentialing outside of the
profession?
Editor's Notes
This case study explores how credentialing of public relations practitioners in New York’s Capital Region impacts their role in strategic communications management, their career path as well as ethics and professionalism. Three public relations practitioners from the area shared their views on whether credentialing matters in a smaller regional market, to what extent they view credentialing as a component of professionalism and ethical practice, and the role credentialing plays in raising the industry image and the professional image of the practitioner.
While the profession continues to grow, image issues persist
Global Alliance announced in June 2014 that it would explore a global credential
Current certifications in the U.S.: Accredited in Public Relations (APR) and ABC credential
To find out if credentialing impacts the public relations practitioner as part of the dominant coalition, professionalism, career trajectory, and ethics.
