The Corporate Housing Providers Association (CHPA) launched the Certified Corporate Housing Professional (CCHP) program in 2006 to affirm the competence and professionalism of individuals in the corporate housing industry, promote uniform standards of practice and elevate the industry’s credibility among clients, partners and stakeholders worldwide. The CCHP credential is the world’s only mark of excellence for the corporate housing industry. The qualifications for certification are based on professional experience and a rigorous exam. The CCHP exam was developed and is maintained by corporate housing professionals from across the world who volunteer their time to ensure the program reflects current best practices, knowledge and trends in the industry. The CCHP program aims to increase expertise and elevated professionalism in the industry by: • Defining a validated standard of knowledge essential for corporate housing professionals. • Formally acknowledging those who satisfy CHPA eligibility and pass the examination. • Strengthening the public perception of corporate housing as a professional, reliable alternative to hotels for extended-stay business travelers. • Fostering lifelong learning to help professionals deepen their skills and adapt to market, regulatory and client demands.
