Professional Recognition Scheme

Housing professionals in Australia and New Zealand are at last able to seek formal recognition of their skills from your sector's professional body. From 2011 the Australasian Housing Institute will offer formal accreditation of housing people under our Professional Recognition Framework for Social Housing Professionals.

The following are only several of the benifits for those whose knowledge and expertise will be acknowledged:

  • Being a recognised social housing professional demonstrates that your professionalism has been recognised by industry experts.
  • Certificates acknowledge that your practice is competent and ethical
  • The status of recognised professional always distinguishes leaders in the field.
  • A current certificate highlights that you are an up-to-date professional and willing to develop.
