Gaughan Institute Releases 2020 Schedule
Over the years, Gaughan Association Management has not only recognized the need to ensure their staff is well educated but also the knowledge the Board of Directors and Homeowners need to receive.
The more education provided to the Board and Homeowners, the more efficiently the associations can operate.
Each member of the Board of Directors volunteers their services while taking on significant responsibilities and liabilities. Through our educational sessions, the Boards can become more confident in their decisions. Educated Homeowners also feel secure in their Boards’ leadership.
Gaughan Association Management is excited to release the following schedule of educational sessions for 2020:

Gaughan Association Management Awarded the Accredited Association Management Company Designation
Gaughan Association Management recently joined an elite group of community association management companies that have earned the Accredited Association Management Company (AAMC®) credential from Community Associations Institute (CAI). To earn the AAMC credential, a management company must have three years of experience in community association management and at least 50 percent of its managers must have earned professional designations.
Gaughan is one of six association management companies in Minnesota to receive the AAMC designation. Fewer than 250 management companies worldwide have earned the highest level of professional recognition in the community association management field.
Gaughan Association Management will be inducted during the Opening General Session of the upcoming CAI Annual Conference and Exposition in Washington, DC on May 9-12, 2018.
