In order to best serve our clients, the team at Cabinets & Designs is always striving to stay ahead of the industry curve. By maintaining ongoing training and education, keeping up with the latest trends and innovations, and growing our professional networks, we can deliver the best in design, service, and products to your home.
As a member of the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA), Cabinets & Designs is part of the premier association for kitchen and bath professionals; with a membership totaling more than 50,000 members, NKBA sponsors the annual Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) and promotes the professionalism of the entire kitchen and bath industry. NKBA was established in 1963 as a network of kitchen dealers, and today it encompasses distributors, retailers, remodelers, manufacturers, fabricators, installers, designers, and a host of other kitchen and bath professionals. Their certification program keeps members on an achievement track that includes continuing education and career development in the kitchen and bath industry.
Many of the members of the Cabinets & Designs team have served/serve on the NKBA Texas Gulf Coast Chapter Board. Maggie Grants volunteered as Secretary, Laura Minor is the current Secretary, and Ashley Scherch is the current VP of Communications & Technology.
NKBA also offers information and resources geared toward the consumer audience. Sections of their website—such as the Inspiration Gallery, Design gallery (which includes information for both homeowners and professionals), and Learning center—are all offered with the homeowner/consumer in mind. And while other areas may be geared toward professionals–like the Professional Resource Library, Books, and Tools resources found in the NKBA online store—we know that many homeowners will find them informative as well.
Are you thinking about a career in the kitchen and bath industry? The KNBA website is a great place to start learning, and will be a valuable resource for you throughout your education and career. Whether you are a homeowner, kitchen and bath professional, or aspiring kitchen and bath professional, the NKBA website is an excellent resource.
