Which industry group gives the best training for community association managers?
Condoguru: CACM and CAI both have fine designation programs, ranging from designations with minimal requirements to more elite designations. The main difference between CACM and CAI is that CACM is a group for managers (visit Resources Page). CAI serves other industry people besides managers such as homeowners, board members, developers, professionals and homeowners. In my opinion, both have equally good programs and both designations are widely recognized in the State of California. Both groups have good training programs and do very good things for managers. They have considerable offerings. And I believe that the courses I offer are very good, too. They offer Plain Engllish, interactive and ‘hands on’ learning.
