Langara’s Social Housing Management certificate program has been approved through a validation process with the Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH), in order to recognize the program as leading directly to Certified membership with the professional body. This will enable students who have successfully completed the Social Housing Management Certificate program and are active members with CIH Canada to use the designatory letters CertCIH (Canada) after their name.
