Board Training SeminarsOnce a quarter, M & C offers FREE training to all of our Board Members. We invite the industry's best professionals (lawyers, insurance specialists, accountants, reserve preparers, and many more) to educate our clients on the everchanging practices and laws of homeowners associations.
Homeowner TrainingLiving in a community association requires different responsibilities for every homeowner. M & C offers several opportunities for homeowners to learn what it means to live in a community association in Northern California. The more your homeowners know and understand about community associations, the better run your community.
Online ForumsWe admit it, we don’t know everything. That’s why every manager in every Associa company uses the Manager’s Musings Forum provided by Associa. The forum is a place for managers to broadcast any question across the country and receive answers from the industry’s best managers. There is no community issue that we can’t handle.
