The CIPR Internal Communication Certificate is the only qualification for internal communicators awarded by a Chartered Institute and the only qualification programme for internal communications in Bulgaria. A valuable qualification in its own right, it also prepares you for the CIPR Advanced Certificate and Diploma in Public Relations.

The CIPR Internal Communication Certificate is a degree level qualification, the same level as the Advanced Certificate in PR, but a shorter course with 20 hours teaching over six months. It can be substituted for the final module of the Advanced Certificate.

This qualification is set at level 5 NQF (UK). Level 5 qualifications recognize the ability to increase the depth of knowledge and understanding of an area of work or study to enable the formulation of solutions and responses to complex problems and situations.

This course introduces the key theories that underpin what we do as internal communicators and tackles the practical aspects of our work leading to the submission of a report on practice.

The first course for Internal Communications Certificate were held in the beginning of 2010 and leaded by Kevin Ruck and Ann Pilkington.
