Welcome!

Hello! It is my pleasure to provide this document for you and the articles I gave to Paloma.

Many of you may not know me, so briefly I was born in UK, NE Yorkshire; came to Canada as a young bride.

In my life I have faced challenges head on – divorced, single mum, worked my way up the corporate ladder, ending as a General Manager managing a $10m operation, kicked out without a pension, started a decorating business, at 50, morphed and pioneered staging here in this country and in 2005 started a school for stagers.

Christine Rae, born in UK NE Yorkshire The industry has changed exponentially in North America, currently on the cusp of an explosion of need.

I am a great resource for you! Please explore the CSP International™ Staging Academy courses for professional development and certification – there is something to please all from general interest in Fen Shui for success in your business to certification in a variety of niche markets like air BnB, Senior transition, renovations, color, business and much more!

Is Staging Certification Necessary?

The home staging industry is unregulated and there is no “governing and regulating association”. Don’t let this alarm or dissuade you from pursing your dream. The Home Inspection industry is non- regulated also, in fact many industries are rooted in non-regulation. What it means is simply anyone can say they are a stager and anyone can provide a training course, online or in person………….. without ever having staged a home! Shocking isn’t it? We believe as a new business starting out you need as much ammunition and information as possible to position you as an expert instead of a newbie. Certification for a stager is as vital as a license is to a real estate agent.

Yesterday I was listening to and reviewing some of the information from the “FastTrack Business Package”, it occurred to me how much thought went into putting this package together. I felt I needed to say Thank You to you and your Team. All the information taught in the class and provided in this package has given me the confidence I need to start this new chapter in my life.
