Event Description
All Registrants should have received their login link and an email with links to the course material. If you didn't receive these links (training login link & course material links), please contact us at help@mid-atlanticahma.org.
The Certified Professional of Occupancy (CPO) course is a comprehensive program offered by the National Affordable Housing Management Association (NAHMA) for property management staff responsible for site compliance of HUD affordable housing developments. It is the only occupancy course that covers the HUD 4350.3 Handbook in its entirety, with specific handbook references cited in the margins of the course text. This Accelerated CPO course will follow the 1-Day CPO intensive agenda and be taught in four 3-hour Interactive Zoom meeting training sessions over two consecutive days. The dates and times are as follows: September 15: 9 a.m. – 12 noon and 1 p.m. – 4 p.m. EDT and September 16: 9 a.m. – 12 noon and 1 p.m. – 4 p.m. EDT. Following the training, you will complete a 4-hour on-line certification exam that must be taken within 3 weeks of completing the course. You will receive special instructions for accessing the exam. Participants who successfully pass the exam will receive a CPO certificate and lapel pin. All CPOs are listed in an annual, national certification directory. CPO is a requirement for NAHMA’s National Affordable Housing Professional (NAHP®) certification program.
Each participant will receive a unique log-in to the Zoom meeting and an electronic copy of the 4350.3 Handbook and the CPO course materials via email prior to the course. Because you will use the 4350.3 and CPO manual during the training and be able to refer to them during the test, we highly recommend that you print the Manual so you can jot notes, highlight, tab with post-its, etc.
Attendees should be prepared with a computer/laptop (webcam & microphone optional, but preferred for best interactive ability), calculator, pencils and highlighter for the course.
Please note: Recording of this virtual training event is prohibited. Attendees will not have the option of viewing a recorded version if any sessions or parts of sessions are missed.
