Course Descriptions:
Efficient and Effective Community Management
Instructor: Thomas L. Willis, AMS, PCAM
The purpose of this course it to identify the management tasks necessary to operate professionally managed community associations, to understand the interrelationships of those tasks and to provide an effective and efficient framework to properly operate while meeting the legal and contractual obligations necessary.
Who Insures it, Who Maintains It, Why is it so Difficult?
Instructor: Association Attorney Group & Insurance Agent
This course will cover the different types of insurance required and recommended for all types of associations. The course will also evaluate the difference between insurance and maintenance requirements in the declaration and Georgia condo act and how obligations for maintenance are used to apportion insurance policy deductibles. It will also cover two case studies, on focusing on a directors and officers liability claim and one focusing on a property damage claim. The managers will be asked questions concerning actions to take, apportioning deductibles, handling insurance proceeds and preventive measures to adopt.
Association Members and Vendors - It's not all in the contract
Instructors: Thomas L. Willis, AMS, PCAM
In community associations, whether they be condominiums or single family homes, there are many facets to identifying and dealing with the various stakeholders. Understanding how to maintain, not only the letter of the law, but the intent, is a significant part of every association manager's duties. Enforcing covenants, rules and gaining consensus is a critical skill in professionally managing community associations. Developing the skills and knowledge to address and present the viewpoints of every participant and enlist cooperation is essential to professionally managing community associations.
