New Certifications: CCIP and Lifestyle Management
New Certifications: CCIP and Lifestyle Management
We want to recognize one industry partner and several managers who have achieved CACM’s newest certification (CCIP) and sub-specialty certification (Lifestyle Management) recently.
Darren Seefeldt was the first industry partner to achieve the California Certified Industry Partner (CCIP) certification. This is a new program that was launched this summer. Seefeldt completed the three courses and other requirements to become certified on October 12.
Lifestyle Management is a new sub-specialty. Managers can apply for this certification after completing the Lifestyle Management course, which was offered for the first time in October.

How long have you worked in the industry?
Twelve years, just over 10 as a community manager/owner of a management company, and the last year plus as an industry partner.
What made you want to take the CCIP courses?
Having worked as a manager and industry partner, I know the importance of having solid relationships between the two. Industry partners who truly understand the industry and the challenges managers face are better suited to support these managers and the associations they serve. Although Gordian is primarily focused on supporting management companies and managers rather than providing a service to the associations they serve, when CCIP was being discussed I knew how valuable it would be to the industry and wanted to participate.
One thing you learned from the courses?
Being from Chicago originally, I learned a lot about California laws and CACM.
Congratulations to these managers who have achieved the Lifestyle Management sub-specialty certificate:
Ronnie Rosen, CCAM-HR.LS.LM
Mike M. Yarman, CCAM-LS.LM
Alisa Ramirez, CCAM-LS.LM
Patricia Klock, CCAM-HR.CI.AA.LM
Kelly Roseman, CCAM-LS.LM
