Director at Fishbowl PR | Communication strategy specialist | Board member IABC Asia Pacific | Student of social impact measurement | Convener Border North East Communicators' Network
What a great community we have here in our region. Friday’s Wodonga Gift of Communication was the result of many individuals and organisations giving. The outcome was that eight community groups and small not-for-profits received free help with their marketing and communication challenges. They left with plans for what to do next and new creative sparks. This is the first time the Gift, which IABC has been running for 14 years, was held in this region. And many people got on board to make it a reality. Thank you to the 13 members of the Border North East Communicators Network who helped with planning and/or provided advice to the groups on the day. We couldn’t have delivered this without you. Thank you to Luke Jobson and North East Water, Dr Helen Haines MP and Alison Lloyd, Mell Millgate PAMI (CPM) MCIM MAICD, Alison Foscholo, Judith Charlton, Elroy Bos, Kellie Davies, Bronwen O’Shea, Felicity Bate (née MacLeod), Tori Ferguson, Jessica Caruso, Michelle Hudson and Dr Trudi Ryan. Last, but certainly not least, thank you to Ross Monaghan and IABC APAC Region for supporting the initiative in this region and to Zora Artis, GAICD IABC Fellow SCMP for introducing me to Gift of Communication. And to both for traveling from Melbourne to help us on the day. That's a lot of generosity from a lot of people. I'm so grateful to have so many collaborative and community-minded people to work with.

Today’s #WeLeadComms honors go to the Centre for Strategic Communication Excellence (CSCE) and IABC for the launch of a new partnership - with CSCE to provide comprehensive training for the certification programs offered by the Global Communication Certification Council (GCCC): the Strategic Communication Management Professional (SCMP) and Communication Management Professional (CMP) designations. In announcing the alliance, the GCCC marks a significant milestone in its mission to advocate a universal standard for strategic communication excellence and to support candidates on their certification journey. “The GCCC and CSCE alliance will further strengthen the provision of life-long learning opportunities that enable communication professionals to elevate their careers and keep their skills fresh and relevant,” said Kamyar Naficy, Chair of the IABC International Executive Board. CSCE’s Managing Partner Sia Papageorgiou FRSA, FCSCE, SCMP says: “As a long-time advocate for certification, I firmly believe every communication professional should be certified. Certification is more than just letters after your name—it’s about validating your expertise, demonstrating your strategic value, and showing the world that you meet global standards in strategic communication excellence. “This partnership marks an exciting new chapter for our profession. Together with the GCCC, we’re making sure communication professionals have the resources, knowledge, and confidence to lead with impact. Whether you’re preparing for the CMP or SCMP exam, we’ve designed training paths to suit your journey and help you thrive in your career.” The GCCC and its certification programs were established by the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) in 2014, with this year marking ten years of impact in recognizing excellence in the communication profession. @IABC and @CSCE are also partners of #WeLeadComms - and numerous #WeLeadComms honorees already hold the SCMP and CMP designations.
