The Director Certification program exists for the purpose of encouraging continued education of our directors. By going through a specifically assigned curriculum, directors will better enhance the barbershop chapter experience for all of their members.
- There are three levels of certification:
- Applicant - Once a person has submitted an application to enroll in the program, but has not reached the stage of "Certified" director, they will be called an "Applicant" director
- Certified - Once an "Applicant" director has completed all certified level course requirements, the applicant will earn the "Certified" director status. This status will be rewarded by a framed certificate and a lapel pin and will be presented at the home district convention / contest by the district VP of Chorus Director Development. Additionally, many BHS districts may denote this status in their convention / contest programs.
- Master - Once a "Certified" director has completed all master level courses requirements and the Board of Review approves, the applicant will earn "Master" director status. This status will be rewarded by a plaque and a lapel pin and will be presented at the home district convention / contest by the district VP of Chorus Director Development. Additionally, the International Convention program will denote this status and many BHS districts may denote this status in their convention / contest programs.
