Spotlight on Education: Broadcast Your Expertise. Boost Your Career. Build New Skills

As the number of California CIDs continues to increase (there’s now more than 50,000), the demand for certified managers with specialized knowledge and skills is also growing.

Build New Skills

CACM’s Specialty Certificate Program and MCAM certification were created in direct response to requests from experienced CCAMs who were committed to their careers and wanted continuing education at an advanced level.

Why earn a CACM Specialty Certificate?

• Prepare for future opportunities • Skip years of on-the-job training by gaining the knowledge of years of experience and best practices • Meet and learn from other professionals doing the job • Stay relevant by applying new ideas and practices at your current job • Get closer to earning the Master of Community Association Management (MCAM) certification

Broadcast Your Expertise

There’s one more reason to earn a Specialty Certificate: Distinguish yourself from other certified managers with a specialty designation after your name!

CCAMs and MCAMs who hold a Specialty Certificate can now showcase their expertise by using the assigned designation for that specialty after their CCAM or MCAM designation.

Specialty designations are not intended to be certifications and may only be used in conjunction with the CCAM or MCAM designations.

For example, the CCAM-LS.AA shows that the individual is a Certified Community Association Manager with a specialization in Large Scale and Active Adult CID management.

For managers with more than one Specialty Certificate, the designations will be separated by a period. For example, the MCAM-PM.HR.CI shows that the individual is a Master of Community Association Management with specializations in Portfolio, High Rise and Commercial & Industrial CID Management.

Boost Your Career

Adding the designation for your specialty after your CCAM or MCAM is a great way to market your credentials and instantly inform clients that you are committed to higher education and bringing that expertise to their CID.
