More than manage, these professionals must also provide sound advice on the vast array of topics addressed by the volunteers who serve on community association boards. The profession of association management has become increasingly specialized and challenging as communities have become more complex and demanding. The position has taken on even greater importance as local governments have ceded more and more responsibility to community associations from road maintenance and street lighting to recreational amenities and communications (satellite and cable). It was with these responsibilities in mind that CAI developed the only national certification program designed specifically for community association managers. Created in 1995 and administered by the Community Association Manager International Certification Board (CAMICB), the program established community association management as a distinct profession and continues to offer professional development opportunities specifically tailored to the professionals who choose this career path. Managers who take CAIs courseEssentials of Community Association Managementand pass the National Certification Examination earn CAMICBs Certified Manager of Community Associations (CMCA) certification. CAI provides educational opportunities toward even more advanced accreditation, such as the Association Management Specialist (AMS), Large-Scale Manager (LSM) and the Professional Community Association Manager (PCAM). All are designed to elevate the professional abilities of association managers. Thousands of managers have earned CMCA certification and AMS, LSM and PCAM designations. State legislatures occasionally have soughtinappropriatelyto license community association managers as real estate brokers or property managers. But community association management is a specific profession requiring unique skills. By definition, property managers perform facilities management and leasing services. Association managers are hired to work with volunteer boards of directors to enhance, preserve and protect communities. While licensure of real estate brokers, agents or property managers protects consumers in sales transactions, it does not protect consumershomeownersin the ongoing management and operation of their communities. While CAI opposes the regulation of community association managers as real estate brokers, agents or property managers, we encourage the certification of community association managers. In states that propose mandatory regulation of these professionals, CAI supports a regulatory system that incorporates adequate protections for homeowners, mandatory education and testing on fundamental management knowledge, standards of conduct, continuing education and appropriate insurance requirements.
