About Us
The Certified Color Expert (CCE) training program was created because there is a huge need in the design industry for a structured, process-oriented, color certification training that's focused on growing the color consultation industry by connecting Certified Color Experts to home owners in need.
Audra's mission for the Certified Color Expert (CCE) program is to grow the color consulting industry, so that every home has a Certified Color Expert specify the right paint colors BEFORE the home owner ever hires a painter! No more color mistakes in the home!
Prior to creating the Certified Color Expert program, Audra has been the leading online trainer for the home staging and redesign industry as the founder of the Home Staging Resource, the American Society of Home Stagers and Redesigners (ASHSR) and the Expert E-Designer training program.

Audra Slinkey's Certified Color Expert Certification course is an indispensable add-on to her staging certification. As a stager, there is rarely a house that does not need some painting. Having a clear and substantiated understanding of color provides the confidence and added professionalism needed to deliver a service to a client that guarantees success. I highly recommend taking this course if you want to understand color more and be a color consultant and/or, add accreditation to your staging expertise.
