About Us
The founder and president of the Canadian Redesigners Association, Val Sharp teaches a 5-day course in interior redesign and home staging. Val is also an approved instructor with Interior Redesign Industry Specialists in the US (IRIS). She is also the author of "The Art of Redesign -- 5 Simple Steps to No-Cost Redecorating."


She has a corporate background in communications and investor relations, has a certificate in multimedia from Vancouver Film School, and is a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC). Val's fun and caring approach to redesign provides students with an unforgettable training experience.
About Our Course
Learn to do both the 'move out' and the 'move in'. Val Sharp's 5 day interior redesign and home staging course trains you to do both sides of the transaction. You will also be trained to redesign homes for people who just want a new look and feel for their home without buying new furnishings.
The course includes 3 days of hands-on training in real clients' houses. It also qualifies you to join both the Canadian Redesigners Association and Interior Redesign Industry Specialists (IRIS). Once you join these organizations, you will become either a Certified Redesign and Staging Specialist (CRSS) with the CRDA, or a Certified Interior Redesign Specialist (CIRS) with IRIS.

Testimonials

"Things are really picking up for me and I can't tell you how fulfilling this line of work is. I am the happiest person on this planet right now..... and all thanks to you! Thanks for all the inspiration and guidance - I'm truly on my path!"
-- Lillian Cornell, Stage One Home ReDesign Ltd., Vancouver, BC
"Val, I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise with me during our time together in August. You have a gift when it comes to teaching others. You encourage people to take that all important first step and continue to guide them through the process with your enthusiasm, dedication and humour. You even allow for 'screw ups', big and small, and I thank you for that."
-- Karen Kostyshyn, Home Interior Transformation, Toronto, ON
"What a great week! I feel like I learned so much, not only about redesign, but about myself. Thank you for that. You are really great at what you do and at making people feel like they can be great too. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge, skill and passion with all of us that need a little "kick start." Oh yeah, and thanks for feeding me so well too! "
-- Paige Dempsey, Kamloops, BC
"Thank you so much for last week - it was truly inspiring and informative, and I learned so much! You really do give 500% - I think the course is excellent value, and the hands on practice was invaluable and really gives us the tools and confidence to go forth and take on clients!
I was thrilled with all your start-up advice too - as you know I have operated several businesses in the past 30 years, but have never seen so much useful information all in one place - usually you have to dig deep for it! There were also many new things in your course that I had not encountered before, both in the design and business aspects. Many thanks again! "
-- Liz MacKay, Victoria, BC
