In November 2014 we signed an agreement with Pearson VUE, the new professional testing agency for the examination. In November 2014 International came together with the European Fundraising Association (EFA) to announce a partnership to support our mutual goal of furthering best practices in ethical fundraising, with EFA certified curricula counting toward application requirements. In the fall our e-newsletter Leading Edge was re-launched as a weekly news brief, providing a regular vehicle for engagement and information sharing between International and certificants and applicants across the fundraising community.
Digital and print marketing to build the brand of certification and credentialed fundraisers was greatly expanded in both U.S. An example of this expanded presence was International being the presenting sponsor for the Global Fundraiser of the Year Award at the International Fundraising Congress (IFC) in the Netherlands. We increased our presence at national and international fundraising conferences throughout This work served to build understanding of the value certification brings to fundraising professionals and how professional certification strengthens a global philanthropic sector based on best practices in ethical fundraising. In 2014 International moved to capitalize on these investments by increasing our marketing capacity and engagement across the global philanthropic sector to grow the brand. The implementation of the unified global exam and our upgrades to the online application portal and website in 2013 were critical steps for International in a number of ways, but chief among them was that these investments in modernising the certification process laid the foundation to better engage and serve certificants and applicants and grow the credential both in North America and around the globe. Our momentum is building on 2013 s strong foundation of change and like a snowball rolling down a hill, it continued to grow throughout the year as we expanded our engagement across the global philanthropic sector around our mission. If change defined the year 2013 at International and for the credential, to my mind, the word to describe 2014 is momentum. 2 From the Chair Philip Schumacher, Chair, 2014 For International, 2014 was a leap forward year.
