How
often do I need to renew my license?
All
community association managers’ licenses expire September 30 of
even-numbered years.
My license
expired 2 or more years ago, and is now null and void. How do I become a
licensed community association manager again?
You
may petition for reinstatement of a null and void license if you failed to
renew your license due to unusual hardship or illness. If the council denies
reinstatement, you will be required to reapply for licensure as a new
applicant, including pre-licensure education. You are not, however, required
to take the state examination again.
I am not
using my community association manager license. Can I place my license in an
inactive status?
Yes, you may place your license in an inactive status. You may do this at
renewal time for an inactive renewal fee of $100.00; or you may submit a
request, at any time other than the renewal period, along with your original
license and a change of status fee of $15.00.
How can
I reactivate my inactive license?
For each
year or any portion of the year your license is inactive, you must complete
10 classroom hours of continuing education. This total includes 2 hours for
the legal update seminar for the year you are reactivating.
Will the continuing education hours I take to reactivate my license count
toward the continuing education hours required to renew my license?
Yes. However, you will be responsible for ensuring that the continuing
education requirements are met in each subject area for renewal.
I have just received my community association manager license. Will I be
required to comply with the continuing education requirements for my first
license renewal?
All licensees who are licensed as a CAM for more than 24 months at renewal
time will be required to complete the full continuing education
requirements. The term more than 24 months means being licensed 24 months
plus one day. Licensees who are licensed for 24 months or less at renewal
time are exempt from CE renewal requirements until the end of the next
renewal cycle.
What are the continuing education requirements for renewal?
All community association manager licensees must satisfactorily complete a
minimum of 20 hours of instruction, during each license renewal period,
which shall include the required hours at an approved legal update seminar.
The 20 hours of continuing education shall be comprised of the following:
·
4 hours of legal update
·
4 hours of instruction on insurance and financial management topics
·
4 hours of instruction on the operation of the community association’s
physical property
·
4 hours of instruction on human resources topic’s relating to community
association management
·
4 hours of additional instruction in any area described above, or in any
course or courses directly related to the management or administration of
community associations.
