Access Control Is Broken—Here’s Where HOAs Get It Wrong (CEU)
May 20, 2026 10:40 AM EDT
Gated communities. Key fobs. Call boxes. On paper, it all sounds secure—but many associations are far more exposed than they realize.
Join us for a practical discussion featuring Tom Landry (SEC Protects), a 25-year federal law enforcement veteran who retired from the United States Secret Service in 2022. Tom served as Special Agent in Charge of the St. Louis Field Office and on the Presidential Protective Division under Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, working in nearly fifty countries. He now helps organizations strengthen real-world security environments.
When the Board Turns on the Manager – How to Survive (CEU)
May 28, 2026 10:40 AM EDT
It’s more common than most admit—new board members come in and immediately want a change. Instead of a clean transition, some managers find themselves dealing with one or two board members who make their job difficult, unproductive, or even hostile.
In this candid session, we’ll break down how managers can navigate situations where the relationship with the board—or certain board members—has clearly shifted. When communication becomes strained and interactions feel personal, what’s the right response?

Insurance Deal Killers: What Boards and Managers Need to Know Before Coverage, Loans, or Claims Go Sideways
Insurance coverage is getting harder, more expensive, and more complicated for community associations — and small mistakes by boards or managers can create major problems. In this session, insurance professionals Greg Gerelli and Dawn Becker-Durnin discuss the issues that can delay, damage, or even kill insurance deals, including incomplete applications, poor documentation, deferred maintenance, claims history, rental percentages, lender requirements, underwriting red flags, and changing insurance market conditions.

Parking Garages & Concrete Nightmares: What Managers Must Catch Early
Jun 9, 2026 (Available all day).
Parking garage and concrete problems rarely appear overnight — they usually start as small cracks, leaks, rust, water intrusion, worn sealants, or hidden deterioration that managers and boards may walk past for months or years. In this discussion, Scott Baryiewski of South Shore Construction and Tanner Oldenburger, PE, RS of Reserve Advisors explain the early warning signs managers should recognize, why water and salt are major enemies of concrete structures, how small maintenance issues can turn into major structural repairs, and why reserve planning is critical before a garage or façade project becomes overwhelming.

Adam Clarkson, Esq. — South Carolina Legal
June 11, 2026 (Available all day)
Join us for an exclusive one-on-one conversation with Adam Clarkson, Esq., as we dig into the real-world legal challenges facing community associations today. This is not a panel—this is a focused, direct discussion designed to unpack how attorneys actually think when boards and managers are making tough calls.
We’ll explore where legal risk truly begins (and where it’s often misunderstood), how boards unintentionally create exposure, and what managers should and should not be doing when legal issues start to surface. Adam will also share practical insights on communication with counsel, navigating gray areas, and how to avoid turning small issues into expensive problems.

How to Handle HOA Know-It-Alls
June 18, 2026 (Available all day)
Every community has one… the “know-it-all.” They’ve read one statute, watched a video, or used AI—and now they’re ready to challenge management, the board, and even legal counsel. Sometimes they’re right. Often they’re not. Either way, they can disrupt meetings, create confusion, and undermine confidence in leadership.
In this session, we break down the psychology behind know-it-alls and, more importantly, how managers and boards can handle them effectively—without escalating conflict or losing control of the room.
