From its inception in 1988, this firm has placed great importance and emphasis on education. It has always been our philosophy that education in the community association industry is imperative to the success of associations, board members, and managers alike. For this reason we have, and continue to, dedicate a great deal of resources to researching, developing, and creating first-class educational programs.
Our programs are currently offered virtually, and include two to four presentations per month. The first two presentations of the month are in a webinar format and held during the lunch hour (12pm to 1pm); these lunchtime webinars are free and provide managers with one CMCA credit per class. We are also now offering two-hour webinars (11:30am to 1:30pm), for which we charge a nominal fee, affording managers two CMCA credits per class. These webinars cover many diverse topics such as, document rewrites, contract disputes, real estate issues, collection/enforcement processes, and HOA insurance (to name a few).
We also offer webinars specifically created for board members that focus on the directors’ rights, obligations, duties, and powers. These classes are offered six times a year from 5:30pm to 7:00pm to accommodate work schedules, and are available for a nominal fee. We also partner with several Colorado cities to present educational workshops geared towards board members and volunteer leadership.
Therefore, no matter who you are, or what position you hold, we have an educational program that’s right for you!
