A name change for an association that has been promoting certifications with that very name devalues the certifications that give us professional recognition and identity. One of the things APMP teaches is the importance of differentiation. How many other broad spectrum business associations are there? We serve proposal professionals. Full stop.

Lot of best practices written all over books, but when they needed to put it into implementation as an example, think it failed badly. Though, moving forward a lot can be learned through this and all the major decisions needs to be more inclusive.

The change removes the specificity from the membership and accreditations, meaning it won't support the professional development and progression objectives of a large element of the membership.

I agree the broadening on the scope of the organisation into pricing and graphics is both a useful and very sensible idea, however the current execution of this is not the right way to achieve it.

Further research is required to better refine the rebrand.

How so many senior APMP members have reacted is clear indication that something has either accidentally or intentionally gone awry. I'm a new-ish member, but I'd like to understand from the board's perspective how this came about in a nuts-and-bolts fashion (as opposed to the sales pitch) so we can make an informed decision on it.

However, this name change has made me re-think. A shift in focus like this brand change from APMP moves away from the unique space you have built, and therefore dilutes the effectiveness of your offering. It has made me re-assess the actual value/benefit of becoming a member. Any investment I make in gaining qualifications from you, will have less impact, less value, less importance in the market place. I feel bad for those who have recently qualified thinking that their APMP certification holds a certain weight, and only now becoming aware that you're changing name and focus. If that were me, I'd be asking for a refund.
