When you are part of NKBA’s Affiliated Schools program, your institution is recognized as a source for skilled, specialized professionals educated according to NKBA Standards and Guidelines. Students who graduate from an NKBA-affiliated school are qualified for NKBA’s certification program and for employment in the kitchen and bath industry.

Joining the NKBA’s Affiliated Schools Program is free, and your school’s educators and students also receive free membership and access to NKBA’s valuable benefits.  These include an online profile page on NKBA.org; use of the NKBA Affiliated School logo on your school’s website; resources tailored specifically to educators;  and activities to engage with other Affiliated Schools.
