Nettie Owens Attains New Certificate

[Bel Air, Maryland] February 15, 2012 – Nettie Owens, a Harford County-based professional organizer and owner of Sappari Solutions, recently completed the educational requirements to obtain her Level I Certificate of Study in Chronic Disorganization from the Institute for Challenging Disorganization.

The Institute for Challenging Organization is a not-for-profit organization based in St. Louis, Missouri that provides education and training to professional organizers and related professionals who specialize in working with the chronically disorganized population.

Already a respected resource both locally and nationally who has appeared on TLC’s Hoarding: Buried Alive and been featured in Parents Magazine, Owens says this certificate further solidifies her credentials while keeping her education up-to-date. “Beyond staying current on cutting-edge professional organizing strategies, this certificate gives me the ability to pursue more in-depth training and shows my clients they are working with a well-qualified professional organizer,” says Owens.

In addition to her new certificate, Owens is a member of the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) Golden Circle that according to the NAPO website is “a prestigious designation denoting to the general public that the professional organizing industry recognizes its members who have attained an elevated level of experience.” She is also a regular blogger on the Havre de Grace Patch, a monthly contributor to WomanScope Magazine and teaches courses at Harford Community College.

Owens is currently pursuing the next level certificate in the program, Certificate of Study in Basic Hoarding Issues with the Chronic Disorganization (CD) Client. To find out more about Owens and Sappari Solutions, please visit www.sapparisolutions.com.
