Attend APMP events to network both professionally and personally. Throughout the year, at multiple Bid & Proposal Cons and chapter-produced events, we witness significant connections between people who would've never met outside of APMP. Survey comments consistently report "the people I meet" as one of the top reasons they attend APMP events. Members enjoy discounted registration fees and advanced notice to take advantage of Early Bird rates.

Develop Your Career

Verify your knowledge and skills for your employer and yourself. APMP certification validates that you understand industry best practices, and for many members, it positively impacts their salary and/or organizational level in their company. Regardless, learning is often inherent with the preparation to earn each level of certification, so you'll likely pick up a few new tools along the way, too.

Be ready for your next Performance Review. Compensation reports from APMP provide current data directly from your peers and colleagues in this industry. The 2022 U.S. Compensation Report will be released before the end of the year. All are free to APMP members.

 

Enhance Your Skills

Ever get stuck on a proposal? Pick up some quick nuggets of advice. The searchable APMP Body of Knowledge contains a wealth of best practices, tips, and tools to help you move forward. It is entirely online, mobile friendly, and available 24/7/365. Free to APMP members.

Spend an hour with the best in the industry; experience their insight without leaving your office. About once per month, APMP offers a webinar about a relevant, popular topic presented by the industry's top speakers. After each live event, recordings are added to the archives and available for viewing at your convenience. Free to APMP members.

Learn something new, or be reminded of some practices you may have forgotten. Written for proposal people in the business/commercial sector (but just as valuable to people in the government sector), Writing Business Bids & Proposals for dummies has received positive reviews from both newbies and industry veterans.

With this micro-certification and digital badge, I signal to my bid team and stakeholders that I am familiar with this topic. They can use me as their contact and "sparring partner," independent of RFPs.

This was my first APMP event, and I was wholly impressed. The energy in the room reignited my passion for this industry, and I can't wait to get back to my team to implement what I have learned.

My experience, combined with the APMP Body of Knowledge, helped me obtain both the APMP Foundation exam and the Practitioners exam within a week.

The Executive Summaries Micro-Certification exam was easy to follow and clear in what was required. I found the learning materials to be very informative, and they will be a great tool to use while in the exam and for future executive summary tasks.

This topic, Executive Summaries, is way underrated. The Executive Summary is the most eye-catching document, which almost everyone on the customer side reads. Yet, in most bid teams, we don’t dedicate the attention it deserves. I want to learn about something I can immediately put into practice at my workplace, which provides a “quick win” to the team and is a long-term benefit for the company.

The Executive Summary is the key element of each proposal, literally the most important part of the response next to the price – this is why my focus was on this micro certification. Understanding the principles of Deal-Strategy, Win-Strategy, Competitor-Analysis, Ghosting, Persuasive Writing, Features/Benefits/Discriminators, and many more is essential and beneficial for so much more than just the Executive Summary.

APMP has changed my professional life, elevating it to a standard that I didn’t know existed. Aside from the professional advantages of being certified as an APMP Professional, it’s the community of members who make it so special.
