The education division of Common Elements
Learn the work.
Common Elements Academy is where board members and licensed community association managers learn the work. Courses are pending state approval and do not yet count toward certification or CE requirements. Built by the same team behind the Common Elements industry platform, so a finished course becomes part of your identity there too.
What Academy covers
Certification, continuing education, and a verifiable record.
Board member education
Courses for new condo and HOA directors. They are submitted for state approval and do not yet satisfy any state's director education requirement; check your state's rules for the course you need.
Courses for CAMs
Courses for licensed community association managers, built around real statute citations. They are pending approval and do not yet count as continuing education credit.
Publicly verifiable certificates
Every certificate of completion can be checked without an account, so anyone can confirm it was issued. It records completion only, not a license or credential.
The course catalog is being built out and submitted for state approval before enrollment opens broadly. Check academy.commonelements.com for current availability in your state.
Get notified when courses open
Board certification and CAM continuing education are in state approval. We'll email you when enrollment opens in your state.
One identity across Common Elements and Academy.
Your Common Elements account works across both, and a completed certificate shows up on your platform profile automatically.
