Association managers are not required to have any particular state-issued license, but there are industry organizations (CAI, CACM) that issue certifications to qualified individuals who meet the organizations’ requirements of experience, education and knowledge. These certifications indicate the manager’s experience and expertise in managing common interest developments. Some of the current certifications include CAI’s “Professional Community Association Manager”(PCAM), and CACM’s “Certified Community Association Manager” (CCAM).
