    Certified Professional Manufacturers’ Representative (CPMR)

    Certified Professional Manufacturers' Representative (CPMR) is for anyone providing outsourced sales functions to manufacturers, regardless of industry. It is a professional designation earned by and individual, not a firm and is open to 

    firm owners and managers.

    Participants invest one week annually for three years on campus at Arizona State University. Attendees gain knowledge and insight into operating a business more effectively and profitably.

    During the three years of CPMR programming, designation participants create an international network of colleagues with a common body of knowledge and mutual ethical standards. Reaching beyond a single industry and across the profession, the CPMR designation identifies individuals that are committed to being on the leading edge.

    Certification is administered by MRERF, the Manufacturers' Representatives Educational Research Foundation.

    "The CPMR program was the most comprehensive business course that I have taken. It’s a professionally run program by people who understand the manufacturers' representative industry. I find myself continually returning to my notes as a resource for planning and analyzing our business. I would highly recommend this program to any individual in the ‘rep’ industry." - Kevin Jorgensen, CPMR, Specialized Marketing of Wisconsin

    "I have to tell you, whenever I go to seminars I always try to bring back at least one thing to implement in my live at work or home. Well, I have to say, your program has literally given me a plethora of ideas that I will need to apply over the course of the next year simply because there is just too much. You have all really hit a home run with this program as far as I am concerned." - Mike Cevetillo, CPMR, The Kirschner Group

    "As a life long learner, I having taken many courses during my business career and can honestly say that the CPMR program administered by The Institute for Professional Advancement was by far one of the most professional and best run programs I have ever experienced. This study program has enriched both my business and personal life It is very obvious that a great deal of thought has been given to each and every aspect and the attention to detail is the key for success. The staff was extremely helpful in providing their time and resources to each and every participant that attended and worked to create an environment where learning and enjoyment was the main purpose." - Bob Johnson, CPMR, The Growth Partnership
