Education Partners
Distant Learning
Bringing ACPA Education into the 21st Century
As our industry becomes even busier in this economy, ACPA seeks ways to make education more efficient. Distant learning is utilized by most universities, and ACPA wants to incorporate these techniques to train marketing and sales professionals to help agencies with effective specifications.
ACPA will also work towards the development of distant learning for its Quality School which accredits the industry’s quality professionals for the QCast program.
These programs will allow you to train your professionals at a fraction of the time away from their main focus and without travel costs.
