myCommunity: The latest news from CACM

It’s been a super busy start to the New Year! The Northern California Law Seminar (NCLSE19) is now behind us. SCLSE19 (Southern California’s Law Seminar) is right in front of us. I hope to see all SoCal members in March at the happiest place on earth! I’ve listened to your valuable comments and change is happening. Briefly, here is a taste of what is happening:

CACM Website & App

Sorry, but we are not going to modify the existing website. We are building a brand new one! The new website, expected to roll out in April, will make it easier for you to register for events, offer a career opportunity, or provide information to your client Boards on their roles and responsibilities. Our mobile App will be a permanent App at that time also, with all the bells and whistles of the website, only on the go!

CACM Is Growing

CACM is expanding our presence across California! First, to assist us legislatively and to offer more local presence in the Northern California region, we are developing our first satellite location in Sacramento. This effort will also make it easier and less expensive for you to take your proctored exams in that area. Secondly, look for events in new local markets! Bakersfield is getting their first spring forum. San Diego and Orange County are getting local networking events, too. Interested in a local event and want us to get involved? Reach out to me.

We are #StrongerTogether when we are #CACMStrong!

Renewal Reminder

By now, all CACM members should have paid their annual membership dues. Annual dues ensure that members continue receiving benefits including reduced pricing on courses and events. Furthermore, dues ensure the lowest possible recertification rates for CCAM, CAFM & MCAM holders.
