The Coachella Valley Chapter offers many educational events throughout the year.  ABCs: A Basic Course for Association Leaders is a one-day course and is a must for board members and first time managers who want information on the most pertinent issues pertaining to community associations operations. This is a highly interactive course designed to get you involved! This course covers all the basics you need to know to lead your community effectively. Learn what your fiduciary responsibility is, how to run an effective meeting, what the role of a director is, what the governing documents are (and how to use them), and, how to read a financial statement. If you are interested in teaching this course, facilitator training is provided from time to time.
