One of the disappointing things about the CAI is that they have transitioned to 
a professional certification organization. More concerned with the interests of 
managers. There is still a lot of stuff there to use but the cost is in the 
professional membership level— and membership most useful for professionals. 
They also have a CAI Board Leader Certificate.

And they changed the name of the rest of us — we are now "Homeowner Leaders, 
Board Members, and Community Volunteers" which I resent. We all used to be 
members. And chapters were essentially free. Pay for your dinner events. There 
too many pages and sign-ins for me to find out exactly what it costs now.
