We hosted our 2nd Elevator 101 class on Tuesday January 23rd in Morton Grove, IL. The class, which is approved for continuing education credit, was attended by approximately 40 people from 17 different property management firms. In it we discussed the following:
• Types of elevators• Governing codes & certification requirements
• Common elevator violations
• Fireman's service exercise & hoist way access
• Testing requirements
• Obsolete equipment
• Maintenance agreements
• Modernization projects
The goal of the class is to help property managers understand what is behind the elevator industry's curtain as it can sometimes be confusing, not well explained, and expensive. We want our property managers to have the ability to explain to their buildings common elevator questions, code issues and help plan for capital expenditures. After the class, they won’t be experts but will have better questions to ask and become more proactive with elevator service providers. A better educated property manager is a better building advocate and a better customer.
Elevator 101 is approved by Community Association Managers International Certification Board (CAMICB) to fulfill continuing education requirements for the CMCA® certification. This course is approved for 1 hour of continuing education credit.
Our next Elevator 101 CAMICB continuing education class will tentatively be in September. Stay tuned for more info.
