Universal Remodeling - Creating Comfortable and Accessible Homes

Universal Remodeling Education Program

NARI's Universal Remodeling education course will provide you with the tools to sell and conduct remodeling projects that are based on Universal Design principles. These types of projects are attractive not only to those who wish to age-in-place but also families with special needs and families that are forward thinking. You will learn the seven principles of Universal Design, how to interview clients with an understanding and consideration of their special needs, and finally the how-to of building these projects. Enroll now! Participation is limited to the first 22 students. We look forward to "seeing" you in class.

The primary texts included as part of the course materials are Universal Design for the Home: Great-Looking, Great-Living Design for All Ages, Abilities, and Circumstances by Wendy A. Jordan. A spiral bound program book outlining each chapter, along with several supporting references, and a Universal Design video presented by The Ohio State University.

The cost of this course will be $295 for NARI Members and $395 for Non-Members. Course size will be limited to 22 connections to enable active participation by all attendees.

Enrollment for the next two sessions (May 19 and July 14) is open now. Just a reminder, this is a NARI Education Course, not a NARI Certification Program. All applications should be faxed or mailed to the NARI office: NARI, 780 Lee St., Suite 200, Des Plaines, IL 60016, Fax (847) 298-9225.
