Castle earns national recognition
Art Castle, executive vice president of the Home Builders Association of Kitsap County (HBA), has been certified as a Building Industry Association Executive (BIAE) by the National Association of Home Builders’ (NAHB) Executive Officers Council.
The professional designation was in recognition for Castle’s contributions and commitment to the housing industry in the field of association management.
BIAE is a new professional designation program designed to raise professional standards, encourage excellence and identify those who demonstrate skills and knowledge essential to best practices in building industry association management.
Castle, who has been with the Kitsap HBA since 1994, served in the same position with the Whatcom County HBA prior to taking the Kitsap post and is in his 15th year of managing local homebuilder associations. He has also been recognized for his industry contributions at both the state and national levels.
