“Jenny and Jacquie have reinvigorated the PRIA, delivering new masterclasses with global and national subject experts, achieving record entries for the prestigious Golden Target Awards in 2017, new training partnerships with HSPR, and the ongoing accreditation of 18 university courses,” Bell said.

“In 2018, the PRIA also launched the prestigious Donald Dyer Scholarship for two PhD recipients, demonstrating its commitment to professional development and learning of all members.
