The Commission for Common-Interest Communities adopts regulations governing the practice of community association managers; the Commission is within the Real Estate Division of the Nevada Department of Business and Industry. Chapter 116A Regulation of Community Managers and Other Personnel prohibits a person from acting as a community manager without certification:
"Community manager" is defined (NRS 116A.070, effective January 1, 2008) as a person who provides for or otherwise engages in the management of a common-interest community or the management of an association of a condominium hotel.
"Management of a common-interest community" means (NRS 116A.110) the physical, administrative or financial maintenance and management of a common-interest community, or the supervision of those activities, for a fee, commission or other valuable consideration.
Applicants seeking certification as a community association manager must:
- Have successfully completed at least 60 hours of instruction in courses in the management of a common-interest community that has been approved by the Commission
- Have engaged in the management of a common-interest community or has held a management position in a related area for at least 12 months preceding the date of application
- Pass an examination with a minimum score of 75 percent
- Submit two fingerprint cards completed at an authorized law enforcement facility
Both community association management and Nevada-specific law comprise the education requirements for this certificate, and CAI's Essentials of Community Association Management M100 course is one way to meet the required community association management provision.
