From their open and inviting floorplans to their signature features, Sterling Custom Homes offers nothing but the highest standard quality and the most cutting edge technology. Of course, the Austin custom home builder would not be able to uphold their high standards without a team full of exceptional employees. In order to stay up-to-date with the latest in home building trends and technologies, Sterling employees regularly attend continuing education classes and work towards prestigious designations. One such designation, Certified Graduate Builder, was recently earned by Kevin Teters, a builder on the Sterling team since 2007. He completed the coursework and experience requirements needed to earn this professional designation, which is an extraordinary feat. The National Association of Homebuilders has developed a rigorous curriculum for industry professionals in order to achieve the Certified Graduate Builder designation and enhance their knowledge and status within the industry.

The Certified Graduate Builder (CGB) designation focuses on effective management in the office and on the job site, covering a range of subjects including codes and standards, skills in material selection and application techniques, and analysis of all stages of new home construction. Instruction also includes scheduling and estimating skills, job cost procedures, accounting principles and basic contract law. The designations require that graduates meet prescribed standards of practice and experience, complete a comprehensive education curriculum and pledge to uphold the program’s code of ethics.

Sterling Custom Homes is extremely proud of Kevin for earning this prestigious designation. Great job Kevin!
