The American Society of Administrative Professionals (ASAP) recognizes that being an Administrative Professional is more than a job. It is a profession. That is why the organization offers the Professional Administrative Certification of Excellence (PACE).

The Value of Certification, a Pearson and Firebrand study, found that a certification credential assures companies that an applicant is competent and professional. When an administrative professional receives the PACE certification all parties benefit. Certified individuals gain professional credibility and confidence; companies that hire certified individuals gain “stand out” employees who can help them meet their organizational goals and, the public gains from the efficiency, innovation, and expertise of highly trained professionals.

The Value of Certification report discusses how PACE can help administrative professionals, to better communicate, tackle tasks, and manage projects, showcasing leadership skills, and more. Earning the PACE certification and placing the PACE designation after their name positions them as highly credible professionals who are serious about their careers.
