GHBA’s Professional Designations

Strengthen the Houston Region’s

Home Building Industry

By: Aimee Bertrand, CEO, Greater Houston Builders Association

When a national designation program that many

members relied on came to an end, the Greater

Houston Builders Association recognized this

end as a critical opportunity to start its own local

designation program uniquely tailored to the

Greater Houston area’s home building community.

Launched in 2023, the GHBA Professional

Designation Program delivers industry-specific

education designed to enhance expertise, build

credibility and support long-term career growth.

Created by GHBA members for GHBA members,

the GHBA Professional Designations offers top-

tier industry education to builders, remodelers,

trade professionals and associate partners in the

Greater Houston region.

“Although I already knew how to build a home, I

wanted to elevate the quality of my projects to

ensure they met the highest industry standards,”

Haidar Alkhalisi of Khalisi Custom Homes said.

“It has certainly enhanced my credibility and

allows me to have more in-depth conversations

on specific aspects of the build. It was fascinating

to hear tradespeople share their experiences and

challenges, discussing scenarios you wouldn’t

typically encounter unless you were doing a job

day in and day out. The classes also provided a

valuable opportunity to connect with industry

experts and expand my network, helping me grow

my list of potential contractors.”

Breaking down the Builder, Remodeler & Partner Designations

The GHBA Designation Program provides coursework and training for individuals to secure a Professional Builder

Designation (PB), Professional Remodeler Designation (PR) or Professional Builder Partner Designation (PBP).

Professional Builder

Designation (PB)

Professional Remodeler

Designation (PR)

Professional Builder

Partner Designation (PBP)

The GHBA Professional Builder (PB) designation

is ideal for builders in the Greater Houston region.

To qualify, you first need to be a GHBA member

or be employed by a GHBA member company and

must have built at least one home in the last 24

months. To obtain the PB Designation, you need

to have attended 12 “ABCs of Homebuilding”

classes through the GHBA with a passing exam

score of 80%, attend a GHBA-sponsored Ethics

course and hold an OSHA 10-Hour Card. Upon

completion of all requirements, you will pay submit

a Graduation Application and pay the $65 fee. The

PB designation is valid for a year, and you must

attend three ABC’s of Homebuilding classes with

a passing exam score of 80% and pay an annual

renewal fee of $45 to maintain the designation.

The GHBA Professional Remodeler (PR)

designation is designed for remodeling

professionals in the Greater Houston region. To

qualify, you must be a GHBA member or employed

by a GHBA member company and have completed

remodeling projects totaling at least $100,000 in

the past 24 months. Earning the PR designation

requires attending 12 “ABCs of Homebuilding”

classes through the GHBA with a passing exam

score of 80%, completing a GHBA-sponsored

Ethics course and holding a valid OSHA 10-

Hour Card. Once all requirements are met, you

will submit a Graduation Application and a $65

fee. The PR designation is valid for one year. To

maintain it, you must complete three “ABCs of

Homebuilding” classes annually with a passing

exam score of 80% and pay a $45 renewal fee.

The GHBA Professional Builder Partner (PBP)

designation is meant for associate (vendor/

supplier) members. To qualify, you must be

a GHBA associate member or employed

by a GHBA member company. Earning the

designation requires completion of 12 “ABCs

of Homebuilding” classes with a passing exam

score of 80%, a GHBA-sponsored Ethics course

and an OSHA 10-Hour Card. After meeting these

requirements, you will submit a Graduation

Application and pay a $65 fee. Like the other

designations, the PBP is valid for one year. To

renew, recipients must complete three “ABCs of

Homebuilding” classes annually with a passing

exam score of 80% and pay a $45 renewal fee.

Other ways to stay informed about best home building practices

By the time this article prints, the 89th Texas Legislative Session will have ended on June 2. To learn more about the policies that will impact the

home building industry, visit the GHBA’s website at ghba.org and visit the “Top Stories & Industry News” section under the “News & Media” tab.

GHBA’s educational offerings will be updated to reflect any changes in building standards or regulations. Upcoming classes will dive into topics

like HVAC, electrical, scheduling, roofing, masonry and updates to the Texas Association of Builders Contracts, so you can keep building smarter

and stronger. Visit ghba.org/education to learn more about these upcoming classes and the GHBA Professional Designation program.

WHY SMART CONTRACTORS ARE

HIRING VIRTUAL ASSISTANTS

CONTRACTORS DON’T GET INTO CONSTRUCTION BECAUSE THEY LOVE

PAPERWORK. THEY DO IT BECAUSE THEY LOVE TO BUILD.

BUT SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE BIDS, THE RFIS, THE REPORTS, AND THE EMAILS,

THE WORK THEY LOVE GETS BURIED UNDER A MOUNTAIN OF ADMIN.

VIRTUAL ASSISTANTS FOR CONSTRUCTION WERE CREATED TO CHANGE THAT.

STAY IN YOUR ZONE OF GENIUS

FOLLOWING WORKING GENIUS PRINCIPLES, WE BELIEVE PEOPLE THRIVE WHEN

THEY WORK IN THEIR NATURAL ZONE OF ENERGY AND EXCELLENCE.

ş BUILDERS SHOULD BUILD.

ş PROJECT MANAGERS SHOULD LEAD.

ş ADMIN SPECIALISTS SHOULD HANDLE THE DOCUMENTATION.

WHEN SKILLED LEADERS ARE BURIED IN PAPERWORK, YOU LOSE MOMENTUM.

YOU AMPLIFY THEIR OUTPUT AND PROTECT YOUR BUSINESS.

of Women Working

Grow Women

In Construction

BOOTH # 150

By: Angela Robbins

I

have always been a no-nonsense girl and have rarely

taken ‘no’ for an answer in my career. The idea of

not being allowed to do something simply because

I am a woman is difficult for me to tolerate. But

this has been a reality for women in the workplace

for generations. Although much has been done to

create a more equal career opportunity for women,

hiring practices, bias, and lack of applicants continue

to plague many industries. Construction is among

them. Addressing this lack of female employees

has been talked about for years and companies are

beginning to pay closer attention. But in construction

women continue to make a marginal percentage,

approximately 9% of the total workforce. Women

working in the male-dominated construction industry

can find great satisfaction in a variety of roles like

project management, design, safety, and fieldwork.

Many organizations are popping up across the nation

and even globally to try to create interest in construction

fields among women. We tend to lean toward careers

we see women portrayals of in our youth. This means

we must work hard to create positive images of

women in construction for young girls to view as role

models. Working alongside other associations, the

Houston Chapter of National Association of Women in

Construction (NAWIC), helps to build strategies that

attract, hire, and retain females in the industry.

We seek to create a dialogue with young women in our

Independent School Districts (ISDs), partnering with

other organizations, construction companies, and even

construction suppliers to sponsor an annual all-female

construction career expo each fall. At its inaugural event,

approximately 1000 girls from 6th -12th grade participated

in an interactive exploration of careers in construction

through hands-on demonstrations, equipment usage,

and powerful sessions with female construction leaders.

Knowing that getting them interested in middle and high

school is wonderful but realizing we need to reach even

younger children; we sponsor events for elementary

ages like the Block Kids program. Growing interest in the

industry is just one way we can influence the talent pool

and generate larger numbers of female candidates for the

industry.


But NAWIC also realizes keeping women in the workforce

requires innovative support programs as well.

We work hard to create high-quality professional education

opportunities for our members as well as offering mentoring

programs and opportunities to create lifelong friendships

and build professional networks. Each month we serve

up exciting construction related topics to the 70+ women

involved in our chapter and our highly engaged and active

Board of Directors is always working to find new ways to

help women find their way in the

industry. The women of NAWIC are among the strongest

with whom I have had the privilege to work, as they

set forth to continue to break down barriers in a maledominated

industry. Interested in supporting them and

the women who Build Houston or maybe joining in the

cause? Check out the website to learn more (www.nawichouston.org)

or join them for their next general membership

meeting.
