Certified Manager of Community Associations

The foundational, nationally accredited credential from CAMICB — earned by passing the CMCA examination and committing to a professional code of ethics.

02

AMS

Association Management Specialist

The next step from CAI — building on the CMCA with advanced coursework and documented experience managing community associations.

03

PCAM

Professional Community Association Manager

The highest designation in the field, awarded by CAI to managers who complete the full education track and demonstrate years of senior-level experience.
