Consulting Fellows Application 2023 - Due June 16

The Consulting Fellow (CF) is the highest recognition bestowed on its members by the NPMA. Consulting Fellows are expected to have made significant and continuous contributions to the field of property management. This recognition is designed to provide the NPMA with a core group of property/asset management technical experts who will mentor the next generation of professionals, educate NPMA members, perpetuate the literature of property/asset management, and provide leadership in the property management field. This core group is known as the "Council of Fellows."

Please go to the NPMA website, sign in, and select ‘Groups’, “Council of Fellows”; and select the most current templates (rev. 11).

Consulting Fellow candidates must submit a completed CF Application with supporting documentation (see website for templates) along with the $100.00 application fee to the NPMA National Office. Reference Process Flow.

1. Submit through the following Consulting Fellows Application on Smartsheet.
It should contain:
a. Application – Revision v.11

CF recipients are recognized annually at the National Education Seminar. In order to be recognized at the 2023 NES, CF applications and supporting documents must be submitted no later than June 16, 2023.
