CM On Demand

Welcome to CM On Demand, created for those busy individuals who prefer to receive their educational classes in the comfort of their homes and on their own schedule.  This page features our complimentary On Demand classes; please note that these classes cannot count towards any state education requirements such as Certification or Continuing Education, but they do provide useful information at the time of their publication date.

To complete the statutorily required Board Certification, the Department of Business & Professional Regulations offers free and live classes monthly.  When signing up for the DBPR class, separate registration is required for each person and they alone will provide the certificate of completion.  Please see their website HERE for more information and class schedules.  The DBPR also provides a list of approved vendors for Continuing Education classes.

 

Requirements for Condominium Association Board Members*

 

Condominium directors appointed or elected on or after July 1, 2024, must complete a four-hour certification within 90 days after being elected or appointed that covers the following topics: milestone inspections, structural integrity reserve studies, elections, recordkeeping, financial literacy and transparency, levying of fines, and notice and meeting requirements.

 

The certification is valid for seven years and does not have to be retaken during the seven-year period if the director serves without interruption.  If the director serves for more than seven years, the certification must be retaken upon expiration of the seventh year.

 

In addition to the certification, and within one year thereof and annually thereafter, directors must take a one-hour continuing education course relating to any changes during the past year to chapter 718, F.S. and the related administrative rules.

 

Requirements for

HOA Board Members*

 

HOA directors appointed or elected on or after July 1, 2024, must complete education for new board members within 90 days after being elected or appointed.

 

The new board member education is valid for four years and does not have to be retaken during the four-year period if the director serves without interruption.  If the director serves for more than four years, the certification must be retaken upon the fourth year.

 

In addition to the new board member education, the director of an HOA association with fewer than 2,500 parcels must complete at least four hours of continuing education annually.  A director of an HOA association with 2,500 or more parcels must complete at least eight hours of continuing education.
