CSP® Home Staging Certification Course

Since 2001, Christine Rae has been teaching people how to grow exceptionally successful staging companies. Her Corporate background as a General Manager for a $10m franchise owner’s organization, with six offices and a staff of 50, was the foundation for her own staging business to succeed, prior to starting the powerfully successful CSP Staging BUSINESS training.


Thanks to COVID we moved to LIVE ONLINE and as a result have been able not only enrich the curriculum providing 30hours live, provide ONE ON ONE Feedback for every student’s staging design AND gift the student with at least 30+hours of additional skill development workshops to expand knowledge, enhance skills and enrich the already amazing training sessions..



Through this process we have discovered the most powerful way for teaching & nurturing professional staging skills through this live, in-person, intensive training, which also includes interactive work study sessions with a group of your peers for a shared mastermind experience.

 

CSP International Staging & Decorating Business Academy continues to lead the staging training industry with this innovative classroom experience married with enriched online study -all from the comfort of your own home. CSP International™ is the only training program in the industry providing REAL certification which measures your knowledge and your skills. Combining all learning methods to provide the best and most experienced training available! Our program is known for excellence and gives CSP® graduates a distinct marketing edge in marketing their businesses in the real world.
