Las Vegas is a well known destination for big celebrations and fantastic parties and this year, the CAPS & CGR Reception was no different. The annual CAPS & CGR Graduation Reception, sponsored by Hanley Wood, held on Tuesday, October 9, at the Remodeling Show in Las Vegas, offers proof enough that our designation programs are nationally successful. With graduates coming from as far away as Vermont and as close as Southern California, these designation programs truly reach across the country.

The CAPS program graduated 449 students this year giving us a total of 1,629 CAPS designees around the country! You can view this year’s graduates below. CAPS continues to receive tremendous recognition as the professional leader in aging-in-place home modifications. It’s no surprise that the CAPS designation is the most popular education program at NAHB.

As CGR Board of Governors, Vice Chair, Bob Peterson, CGR, CAPS, said, “We are not done. The groundwork has been laid but there is still so much to do.” Peterson went on and encouraged everyone to talk with their local councils and make sure they participate in the fourth annual National Designation Month this March. “As the ambassadors of the CGR and CAPS programs, we steer their future success. Use every opportunity you can to spread the word about CGR and CAPS and the importance of education in our industry.” said Peterson.

For more information about this coming year’s National Designation Month program contact the NAHB University of Housing Helpline at 1.800.368.5242 ext. 8EDU.
