Denver, CO, October 23, 2005 --(PR.com)-- Maggie Chamberlin Holben, owner of Absolutely Public Relations in Metro Denver has been certified as an industry analyst relations practitioner (CIARP).

“I took part in KCG’s ‘Working With The Analysts’ seminar in Orlando, FL, earlier this month and passed the certification exam that followed,” Holben explains, “Our training was lead by William S. Hopkins, CEO and founder of KCG, who as a former industry analyst and senior marketing executive brought an unparalleled depth of knowledge and insight to the seminar.”

According to Holben, she participated in this specialized training to expand and demonstrate her knowledge and understanding of analyst relations in order to more effectively counsel both existing and future Absolutely PR clients.
