Expanding Your Value Through Dual Designations

If earning one BOMI designation can increase your skills, broaden your knowledge, and enhance your visibility on the job, imagine how achieving two or even three designations can further expand your career opportunities. And once you've completed your first designation, you'll already be on your way to your second, because you can transfer several earned credits to another BOMI program, and thus apply them toward pursuit of a new designation.
