industries. It enhances professional stature among ones peers; recognizes
those who have gone beyond expectations to be the best that they can be;
makes a statement to those with whom we do business; provides a leveraged
position from which to negotiate and build career success; and sets higher
standards for our industry. At the IFEA Annual Convention & Expo, Certification,
Advanced Professional and New Professional Seminars are offered prior to
the start of the convention. PROFESSIONAL
