Revised 03/20/2017 1 of 10 642
Community Manager Pre-Certification Education Application for Classroom offerings
The review process for a new classroom offering starts with a completed application submitted to the Office of the
Ombudsman. When the file has been screened for completeness and if the course meets the standards for pre-
certificate education as defined in NAC 116A.205, it will be placed on the agenda for the next meeting of the
Commission on Common-Interest Communities and Condominium Hotels (“CIC commission”). Meetings are
scheduled by the commissioners (www.red.nv.gov
under Commission Meetings) several times per year.
Due to Nevada’s open meeting laws, education applications must be received a minimum of 45 days before the
scheduled meeting to be reviewed and placed on the agenda. Since meeting dates can change and approval is not
guaranteed, we strongly recommend course dates not be scheduled or a course advertised until approval is granted.
Unless the course applicant is a “school” as defined by NAC116A.175, the applicant must obtain a license from the
Commission on Post Secondary Education (CPE) to teach the pre-certification course for which the provider has
applied. The CPE licensure process is separate and apart from the course approval/accreditation by the CIC
commission. CPE licensure must be obtained before submitting an application to the division. Contact CPE at
(702) 486-7330 for further information.
To submit a classroom offering for approval:
Obtain CPE licensure (if necessary).
Carefully read the instructions on the application before completing.
Fully complete all forms. Sign and date (dates to be current) all forms where applicable. Submit the application
with all requested course materials (see pages 3 and 4 of this application) and fees to the division.
A checklist of required items is provided on page 2 for the provider’s convenience. Check the column marked
“X” to ensure the requested forms/materials are included before sending application to the division.
ANNUAL RE-APPROVAL: Complete all forms the same way as for a new application. Submit changes to
course content and/or the textbook. If course content and/or the textbook have not changed, provide a
statement to that effect. Nevada law portions of course content showing law updates must be submitted.
Mail or hand-deliver completed course applications to the Las Vegas address above.
Course applicants are invited and encouraged to attend the meeting at which the application will be considered to
answer any questions from the commissioners. Decision letters are mailed within two weeks after the meeting.
If you have any questions, please call the Office of the Ombudsman at (702) 486-4480 or send an email to
