“The CPCE is a highly sought after designation in the Catering and Events Industry. I wanted to demonstrate that I was a true professional in my field and I couldn’t think of a better way than having these letters behind my name. In addition, I have gained so much knowledge in the field by studying and preparing for the exam. The entire NACE team was incredible and responsive to any and all questions I had. They made the testing process so smooth even during these uncertain times. I really appreciate NACE as an organization and am so excited to use the CPCE designation to further my career.”
