Elevator 101 – Elevator Education For Property Managers – Recap

 

We had a great first Elevator 101 lunch and learn on Tuesday June 6^th, 2023.  We went through a lot of topics and had some good discussion points.  We had some larger property management firms, mid-sized property management firms and even some condominium board members.  This is a class for everyone that lives in a condo or manages one. We are looking forward to trying to get our course accredited and offer CEU’s for the next Elevator 101

Our class goal - The goal of the presentation is to have you become more knowledgeable about elevators, codes, requirements, mandates, obsolesce, modernization, maintenance and other related items so you can educate your Condominium Boards and be a better resource to the buildings you serve.

Our learning agenda was as follows:
