Constellation HomeBuilder Systems Launches Product Certification Program

Driving Operational Excellence Through Structured Skills Training and Testing

Carlsbad, CA — November 18, 2025 — Constellation HomeBuilder Systems, the largest provider of homebuilding software solutions and services in North America, today announced  Homebuilder Academy, a new certification program debuting at the company’s Build Smarter 2025 customer conference in Carlsbad, California.

Developed by Constellation’s extensive team of in-house experts, the Academy’s certification program enables professional homebuilders to demonstrate their proficiency in NEWSTAR, NX, or BuildTopia – Constellation’s comprehensive ERP and construction management solutions.

The Academy offers a structured learning path with three certification levels — Associate, Professional, and Master — with the Professional level tailored to roles including operations, design, sales and warranty, purchasing, sales and marketing, construction, production, and finance. The courses are offered in a mix of online self-paced courses and in-person formats.

“Homebuilder Academy is more than a certification program — it’s a celebration of expertise and a commitment to continuous improvement,” said Jarin Stevens, Director of Customer Success at Constellation HomeBuilder Systems. “We’re excited to offer our customers a chance to grow their skills, get certified, and be recognized for their accomplishments.”

Approximately 40% of the largest homebuilders in North America use Constellation’s software. “Homebuilder Academy is a great tool to help us ensure our team members are equipped with the right skills and knowledge to hit the ground running and will also serve as a powerful tool for identifying and hiring candidates with proven knowledge of the core systems we depend on to run our company efficiently,” said John Peterson, Owner from Hamlet Homes.

“Homebuilder Academy solves two problems for us. First, it will dramatically reduce time-to-productivity for our teams, cutting training costs and getting people contributing to the bottom line faster. Second, it creates a pool of candidates who already know our technology before we even interview them, which lowers our recruiting costs and reduces expensive mis-hires. In an industry where finding qualified talent and accelerating their proficiency are challenges, that’s a real competitive advantage,” said Bill Sullivan, Senior Director of Information Technology at Davidson Homes.

Customers who wish to learn more about the Academy can contact us or log on to CAMPUS, Constellation’s online user community hub.
