Highlight Homes is proud to announce that our own fearless leader, Tony Pourhassan has added four all-important letters to the end of his name – AKBD, which stands for Associate Kitchen and Bath Designer. He received this highly respected industry certification from the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) as a result of experience and education specific to this growing segment of the renovation trade.  The NKBA is a non-profit trade association that has educated and led the kitchen and bath industry since 1963. With nearly 40,000 members and growing, the mission of the NKBA is to enhance member success and excellence, promote professionalism and ethical business practices and provide leadership and direction for the kitchen and bath industry.

To earn his AKBD certification, Tony had to document a minimum of two years of industry experience, successfully complete 30 NKBA Education hours, submit two professional affidavits, and pass the written AKBD academic exam. He did so with flying colors! The AKBD certification recognizes achievement in the competencies necessary for both kitchen and bathroom design, and in order to maintain this certification, Tony will have to meet mandatory continuing education requirements annually. At Highlight Homes, we’re no strangers to seeking out instruction and certifications in order to strengthen and improve our skill set and knowledge base to better serve our clients. 2010 bore witness to our company becoming a Better Business Bureau Accredited Business and a certified agency of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). We add these distinctions to a long list of affiliations and recognitions such as our standing as an Earth Craft House Builder, Energy Star Partner, LEED-certification, and memberships in the National Association of Home Builders and the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association.
