43 new PR specialists with federal certificate of proficiency
This year's professional examination was taken by 58 candidates. Of these, 43 obtained the federal certificate (33 from German-speaking Switzerland and 25 from French-speaking Switzerland), which corresponds to a success rate of 74.1 percent.
At last week's graduation ceremony in Thun, Barbara Forster, the head of the examinations, was able to present the newly qualified PR specialists with their federal diplomas. Traditionally, the best per year were honored: Denise Mammino and Sébastien Dayer achieved the highest grade of 5.1. Stéphanie Mercier achieved a grade of 4.9, and Lucille Mesot and Christoph Wälchli finished with 4.8.
The quality of this protected title is guaranteed by the State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI). With their degree, the new PR specialists have the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical skills to professionally plan and implement planned PR measures in companies, agencies and organizations.
