| |  | | Born out of a meeting in 1987 at the Breaker’s Hotel in Palm Beach, Counselors' Network was created to offer senior level public relations counselors and practitioners an opportunity for professional enrichment and continuing education. | | | | Senior practitioner and long-standing member of FPRA, Jay Rayburn, APR, CPRC, took the reins and created the founding board beginning in 1988 with the mission of CN to concentrate on issues facing senior counselors and learning from seasoned peers. | | | | As all good practitioners, the board began with research and the survey determined a high interest in the creation of Counselors’ Network. The first officers were elected in 1990. | | |  | | | | CN Benefits | | FPRA’s Counselors’ Network offers an unmatched association with not only the most experienced and well respected practitioners in the state, but also offers unprecedented access to the "who’s who" of our profession. Speakers have included Edward Bernays, Harold Burson, as well as numerous CEOs from Ketchum, Tylenol and Fortune 500 companies. | | | | Along with the networking opportunities, CN offers one-on-one collaboration, two professional development retreat opportunities each year, one at the FPRA Annual Conference and a mid-year meeting, and provides a forum for senior members to give back to younger members through mentoring and the FPRA speakers’ bureau. | | | | CN Membership | | CN membership is open to any Universally Accredited member in good standing of FPRA who is actively engaged in providing counseling service, either as a full-time principal, officer, partner or employee of a public relations firm, corporation, organization, or agency, and who has been in a counseling capacity for at least three years and has ten years public relations experience.
