Fundamentals of Condominium Management

This course will solidify your understanding of the history of condominium management and the competencies and skills required of condominium manager associates in Alberta. The self-paced learning format is complete with knowledge checks to test your retention and understanding of the condensed content that will be assessed on the Condominium Management Licensing Exam. Each of the nine units cover in-depth topics that adhere to the competencies and learning outcomes set by RECA. 

Once enrolled, learners will have 6 months to complete the course at their own pace. 

The Fundamentals of Condominium Management (FCM) is your first step to prepare for RECA’s Condominium Management Associate Licensing Exam. Each of the nine units builds a strong foundation of knowledge for the next course Practice of Condominium Management (PCM), where you will apply what you learned.

Together, completion of FCM and PCM meets the pre-licensing education requirements to take the Condominium Management Associate Licensing Exam with RECA.
