May 14, 2021 – Falls Church, VA – Community Associations Institute (CAI), the leading international authority in community association education, governance, and management, announced today the recipients of the 2021 Board Member Education Scholarship.

CAI annually provides financial support for select homeowner leaders to attend the CAI Annual Conference and Exposition: Community NOW, which this year will be held August 18–21 at Caesars Forum in Las Vegas. The scholarship honors CAI member Jerry Fien's long-standing commitment to homeowner involvement within CAI.

The Board Member Education Scholarship is for CAI members who serve on the governing board of their homeowners association or condominium community. Each scholarship includes free registration and up to $1,000 to cover travel and lodging expenses to attend the CAI Annual Conference.

Every year, the event brings together community association board members, community managers, management company executives, attorneys, insurance providers, and other businesses serving the more than 350,000 community associations in the U.S. and millions more worldwide.

The three-day conference kicks off with keynote speakers and includes in-person and virtual education, networking opportunities, and features the largest international marketplace showcasing the latest innovation and technology for community associations.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, CAI canceled the 2020 Annual Conference originally scheduled for June at The Diplomat Beach Resort in Hollywood, Fla., and hosted the event virtually. Each of the 2020 scholarship recipients have been invited to attend the event along with the 2021 recipients.
