I recently completed the 3 required courses for the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB ) Certified Active Adult Specialist in Housing ( CAASH ) Designation prior to the 2009 IBS Show in Las Vegas . The first course was Designing for the Active Adult , the second course was Selling to Active Adults & finally the last course was Trends & Research Methods to Define the Active Adult Lifestyle. I received notice yesterday , June 18th , that my application was approved by NAHB as one of only 6 select and qualified industry professionals in the State of Pennsylvania & 81 in the entire Country to earn this new NAHB designation !
The active adult market is the fastest-growing segment of the housing industry today and into the foreseeable future . The Certified Active Adult Specialist in Housing ( CAASH ) designation gives housing professionals serving this rapidly burgeoning market the essential knowledge , tools , and skills that will help them succeed - from conducting initial research to design considerations and features to servicing the customer . I look forward to putting the CAASH & the Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist ( CAPS ) designations to good use in servicing the needs of the 55+ market here in Pike County PA .
