The Staging Design Professional® online certification course includes everything you need to launch (and rock!) your staging career. There are 15 training modules, plus all of the forms, contracts, and checklists that you will need to run your home staging business. PLUS! You get a one-hour group coaching call, placement on our Find a Stager map, and your SDP® certification badge to use on your marketing materials.

Absolutely! You will discover so many ways to improve and enhance your home staging business. You have been using your amazing intuition, but now you will have the staging tools and skills to take it to the next level.

Staging Studio created a special home staging course for agents like you. Earning this prestigious staging certification will make you the top producing agent in your market! PLUS, you get to add SDP® (Staging Design Professional®) behind your name. Impressive!

We are so glad you asked! The online training is important to complete first for the foundation of design and staging business training. Everyone learns at a different pace, so it is important to take training that you can rewind, pause and come back to over and over.

But once you complete your Staging Design Professional® Expert Level online certification, you are eligible to come to our state-of-the-art home staging training center "The Studio" where you will spend 3 days with us practicing staging at our Master Class.

Staging Studio is Internationally accredited by the Real Estate Staging Association (RESA), the International Association of Home Staging Professionals (IAHSP) and the Home Staging Association in the U.K. (HSA).

There are very few training programs that pass the rigorous RESA accreditation process. RESA is serious about making sure the training companies that they accredit cover the prescribed objectives and set home stagers up for success. RESA even verifies every quoted home staging statistic in our courses.

Staging Studio is passionate about helping you be confident and successful in your staging career. To be a successful home stager, you must have a solid foundation in design principles and color, as well as marketing, efficient systems, and business savvy. The SDP® course and in-person Master Class experience are perfect for leveling up your staging design, marketing, and business skills.

Staging Studio offers four versions of the Staging Design Professional® course so you can take the one that best suits your home staging career goals. The SDP® Pro course is for staging assistants and others who want to learn how to stage, without the business and marketing training. The SDP® Expert course (on this page) includes everything you need to know to stage AND operate a home staging business. The SDP® Master Class takes that to the next level with a hands-on home staging workshop. We also have an online home staging certification course for real estate agents.

If you complete your course and want to take it to the next level, you can always upgrade your SDP® course at any time by contacting us.

Immediately! You have access to the entire online course as soon as you complete the registration process, and you can complete it anytime, anywhere at your own pace. The home staging training videos are as bingeable as Netflix.

Your course expires after one year, but don't worry, you can renew it anytime! Just reach out to us via email or through our chat box.
