Apartment Management Sessions Offered at Multi Housing World

Apartment and condo managers who currently hold a Registered in Apartment Management (RAM) designation can earn continuing education credits at sessions offered at this year’s Multi Housing World conference, the NAHB Multifamily Council and VNU Business Media announced last week.

The conference, which will be held at the Las Vegas Hilton May 11-13, will feature more than 40 educational sessions for multifamily managers, owners and developers, with nearly half eligible for continuing education credits toward the RAM designation.

“Today’s property managers are responsible for millions of dollars in apartment assets,” said Granger MacDonald, president and CEO of The MacDonald Companies and chairman of NAHB’s Multifamily Council. “The property management business is more sophisticated and competitive than ever and education of key management personnel is critical to resident satisfaction and successful properties.”
