Boston, MA On September 28^th, 200 BOMA members and guests attended the Annual BOMA Golf Tournament at Pinehills Golf Club in Plymouth, MA! Thank you to all who joined and to the sponsors for making this event possible. BOMA appreciates their members cooperation with social distancing and keeping the tournament fun and safe while playing at two different tee times on the two different courses. Pinehills Golf Club and BOMA Boston staff worked hard to create a safe and enjoyable day! 

The TOBY & Industry Awards recognize the best and brightest in property management, building operations and service in the commercial real estate industry. There are 17 categories for The Outstanding Building of the Year (TOBY) Awards, and 10 categories for the Industry Awards. Since the TOBYs are nationally recognized, the local winners move onto the regional competition, and hopefully, the international competition. More information about our virtual TOBY & Industry Awards will be announced soon.

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 online. The next course, BOMI Environmental Health and Safety Issues, will take place the mornings of November 10^th, 13^th, 17^th and 20^th, and December 1^st, 4^th, 8^th and 11^th. This live online course will be instructed by Barry Familetto with Stetson Management and Development Company. 

Finally, 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.
