Description
A central part of NCHM's mission is establishing objective industry standards. One of the ways we do this is through our certification programs. An NCHM certification reflects much more than a completed course. It means a housing professional successfully navigated a rigorous, standards-based process. In every case, except for our advanced Registered Housing Manager (RHM) designation, the housing professional must complete the respective coursework and pass a comprehensive examination. To receive our Registered Housing Manager certification, our highest property management designation, the candidate must acquire certifications in four core areas and then prepare a detailed property assessment that is evaluated and graded by a panel of industry experts. When an NCHM certificate is issued, it is truly earned. Recipients know that they possess a credential with real value -- a credential recognized throughout the housing industry as a standard of professionalism and capability.
