Florida Community Association Professionals (FCAP) is a membership-based professional organization for those who work, serve, or live in the 45,000+ community associations in Florida. The primary purpose of FCAP is to train and equip industry professionals with a goal toward effective, efficient, legal, and fiscally responsible community management.
FCAP believes that professional education is an ongoing, never-ending process and strives to provide up-to-date training resources as they become available. Relying on service providers, who work hands-on in the industry and understand its complexity, FCAP publishes and makes available new training material weekly through the FCAP newsletter and monthly in Florida Community Association Journal magazine. Additional legal resources are available through the monthly CALL (Community Association Leadership Lobby) newsletter Managers Report.
FCAP Schools offers training opportunities for managers and board members. Managers are able to take free online CEU courses that satisfy the state’s bi-yearly requirement. Board members are able to take the online board certification requirement at no cost. Managers also have the opportunity to take the FACS (Florida Advanced CAM Studies) course, which leads to credentialing through the CFCAM (Certified Florida Community Association Manager) program.
