| The value of a CAI membership continues to become invaluable. The level of services and expertise you receive is second to none
The Austin Chapter offers the following benefits to all members, whether you are an individual homeowner, a community manager, or a professional selling to and servicing the industry.
Structure = LeadershipThe National network of CAI members is growing daily! There are more than 30,000 individuals and organizations that belong to CAI, all providing opportunities to network and exchange ideas and information.
The Austin Chapter's membership of 225 members is comprised of community members, professional and service members.
Leadership development on a local, regional and national level is a direct result of CAI's success. Development and instruction is emphasized at orientation programs, Board Training, speaker training, as well as within the council and committee structure.
Resources = Education One of the most valuable benefits of membership is that each member receives Common Ground, CAI National's award winning, bi-monthly magazine, which presents expert information and a national perspective on association topics and issues.
The Membership Directory is a benefit used on a daily basis by many of our members. A complete listing of all members is accompanied by a preface of the chapter's mission and goals, pertinent Chapter and industry information.
A progressive communication tool, http://www.caiaustin.org/ is the Chapter's web site, which supplies industry related news, upcoming events, and jurisdictional legislative information. CAI National's web site, http://www.caionline.org/also provides an opportunity to link up and communicate with other community association's pages and members nationwide.
Federal, state, and local legislative incentives are driven by five National and Chapter legislative committees. Their activities are devoted to lobbying legal agendas in the community association forum in our area. Member involvement has been key in achieving legislative successes and is strongly encouraged. The Annual Legal Update reviews current legislative issues and law changes, and legislative updates appear regularly on our chapter website.
CAI Administers nationally recognized designation programs, which recognize those professionals in the community association industry who have met required levels of experience and education.
