The National Kitchen & Bath Association announced Houston Community College as the newest educational institution to attain NKBA Supported Program status. Houston Community College, located in Houston, Texas, has met all requirements to become an NKBA Supported Program provider of a Kitchen & Bath Design Professional Level 2 Certificate.
To become an NKBA Supported Program, an educational institution must have a kitchen and bath curriculum that prepares students for the NKBA Certification Exams. NKBA Supported Programs are evaluated with respect to mission, administration, curriculum, faculty, and resources to determine eligibility and ability to fulfill the Association’s requirements for fully accredited status.
NKBA Accreditation serves the professional needs of the industry and ensures consistent, quality education for students who want to become kitchen or bath professionals. The NKBA currently recognizes over 55 schools in North America whose kitchen and bath curriculum meet the educational standards established by the NKBA.
Houston Community College earned NKBA Supported Program status by demonstrating that it meets these requirements, which represent the basis of a program the NKBA considers essential for quality education.
Each student must complete classroom work and internships monitored by the educational institution, which will enhance and extend the classroom experiences and make certain that they meet the NKBA’s required student competencies. Programs accredited by the National Kitchen & Bath Association must have an NKBA Certified advisor or faculty member. PR
