| The C.E.A.C. is a
recognized certification for professionals engaged in environmental
access, including but not limited to Independent Living Specialists,
Occupational Therapists, Physical Therapists, Remodeling Contractors
and Builders, Interior Designers, Engineers, Rehabilitation
Specialists, Case Managers, Public Health Nurses, Assistive Technology
Specialists, Life Care Planners, and other professionals creating
accessibility or working in the environmental access field.
The C.E.A.C. credential is recognized by
payers (ex: claims adjusters, grant administrators, case managers,
risk managers, health care professionals, federal & state social
service directors, professional organizations, consumers) and others
who continually seek qualified specialists in environmental access to
complete design specifications, building, remodeling, code compliance
consulting, ADL assessments, and aging-in-place needs. These
individuals view the C.E.A.C certification as a symbol of competence
that separates the environmental access industry from a para-professional
trade. Professionals possessing the C.E.A.C have further been approved
by various states’ legal systems as expert witnesses, and have a
broadened field of consulting opportunities.
A C.E.A.C. credential can provide the
Specialist with:
- Validation of professional
practice
- Recognition in the professional
marketplace
- Credibility with prospective
clients and consumers
- Increased opportunity for job
referrals and consultation
- Expert witness opportunities in
the legal system

teams
