If you were registered before April 18, 2024, your registration will transfer to the new date unless you submit a written cancellation. JAHMA and PennDel AHMA strive to ensure that the courses we sponsor include up to date, relevant information. With the requirements of HOTMA still being rolled out, we would like to make every effort to ensure the possibility that HOTMA will be covered in the CPO Course. By October, it is anticipated that HOTMA will be included in the supplemental course materials, however students will not be tested on HOTMA during the exam.

Participants will receive a voucher from their hosting AHMA to take the CPO exam independently on their own at their home office, or property. Students that successfully pass the exam will receive a CPO certificate and lapel pin. All CPOs will be listed in an online national certification directory. The CPO is a requirement for NAHMA’s National Affordable Housing Professional (NAHP®) certification program.
Fees and reasonable expenses for the course are an approved project expense for front-line staff. It is recommended that course attendees have a basic knowledge of the HUD 4350.3 Handbook prior to registration.
