February Is National Designation Month

Do you have a professional designation? Are you thinking about earning one? Join the NAHB University of Housing in February to celebrate National Designation Month, and make the most of this exceptional opportunity to enhance your on-the-job know-how with an NAHB designation.

Why earn a designation? Professional designations offer excellent opportunities to improve your skills, advance your career and be recognized for your commitment to professional growth. They hone your business skills and convey superior training, practical experience and in-depth knowledge to potential clients. 

As part of National Designation Month, NAHB will also be stepping up efforts to educate the public about the value of selecting builders, remodelers and other industry professionals who hold an NAHB designation, so your hard work and dedication will mean even more when it comes to your bottom line.

Throughout the month of February, building industry professionals across the nation can also take advantage of the many special events NAHB and local home builders associations are hosting to celebrate continuing education and recognize designation holders in the building industry.
