Are you a seasoned member of the affordable housing management industry without the Certified Professional of Occupancy (CPO)?  We are offering the CPO Challenge for those who have been in the industry a long time and have used and feel comfortable with the 4350.3. This class will cover the overview of the CPO Manual (you should review and answer all the quizzes contained in the book) and the calculation of word problems. It is important that you have a strong knowledge of the 4350.3. This is an open book exam and both manual and 4350.3 may be used.The exam will be given as part of the class.

This is an opportunity for those who have time constraints to get their certification. Instead of the usual 2 1/2 day CPO course, the CPO Challenge is only 1 day - a morning review session followed by testing in the afternoon.  We are also holding this as a pre-convention training.  If you are already planning to attend the 2017 convention, come one day early and get your CPO certification.

Once the CPO certificate is earned, you will need to renew it each year. Renewal includes earning 6 hours of continuing education (6 CEUs) each year, as well as a modest renewal fee of $90 per year. Submission of the completed CEU form will be due each January along with your payment. The CEUs must have an occupancy-related focus to ensure that you stay on top of new rules, regulations and standards issued by HUD.
