Last month BOMA Boston hosted our first ever Step into Spring event to support our charitable partner, Bridge Over Troubled Waters! In lieu of the BOMA Benefit which would have taken place in the spring, BOMA Boston’s Charitable Giving Committee has created a fun outdoor virtual activity to help raise money for our Charitable Partner while doing something good for you too! We exceeded our goal of $20,000 and raised $22,400 for Bridge! Thank you to our generous donors and our BOMA community for making this happen!

BOMA’s partnership with BOMI International remains strong. Through educational offerings, BOMA members and non--members learn from senior professionals in the commercial real estate industry to work towards earning their RPA or FMA designations, or PAC or PMFP certifications. The next course, BOMI Real Estate Investment & Finance will take place Wednesday and Friday mornings of July 14^th, 16^th, 21^st, 23^rd, 28^th, 30^th, August 4^th, 6^th, 11^th, and 13^th from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. This virtual course will be taught by Mark Giampa with Related Beal. For more information contact Courtney McHugh, cmchugh@gbreb.com.

The commercial real estate industry has a professional certification that provides early recognition for foundational knowledge and guides the next generation of property managers toward greater responsibility and success in their careers: The Certified Manager of Commercial Properties (CMCP). The CMCP is the only certification of its kind for early career commercial property managers – you may qualify with as little as one year’s experience.
