Interest in CMAA Student Chapters Soars
CMAA’s efforts to attract smart newcomers to the CM profession bear fruit in a growing number of student chapters, a surge in student memberships, and rapid growth of the Construction Manager In Training Program.

Owners Forum Presents Surprising but Timely Messages
Many owners, particularly in the private sector, still don’t “get” the value of CM. The Owners Forum in Atlanta showed how much work the profession has to do to promote itself.

CMAA presents

The first new edition of Construction Management Standards of Practice in six years.
The 2010 Edition includes entirely new chapters on Sustainability, BIM and Risk Management, along with extended coverage of Program Management and other updates. For CM/PM practitioners, the new SOP defines excellent professional practice. It can help you market your services and guide your staff training and development. For owners, the SOP summarizes what to expect from your service providers. There is no better authority on what CMs do, how we do it, and how our owner clients benefit.
