A Case for Change has been developed by the Property Services IRC focussing on the relevance and demand for qualifications in strata community management.  The Case takes into account:

• regulatory changes (both to licensing for strata managers and related legislative change for the built environment); as well as
• growing demand for skilled strata managers to meet the needs of increasing urban density and residential property development resulting in burgeoning numbers of strata schemes requiring management.

The Case:

• SUPPORTS the deletion of CPP30416 Certificate III in Strata Community Management
• PROPOSES further industry consultation on the deletion of CPP50316 Diploma in Strata Community Management
• PROPOSES the formal review and strengthening of CPP40516 Certificate IV in Strata Community Management

At the June 2020 meeting of the Australian Industry and Skills Committee (AISC) a directive was issued to the IRC to delete the following qualifications from the National Register unless a valid reason for retaining them is provided:

• CPP30416 Certificate III in Strata Community Management
• CPP50316 Diploma in Strata Community Management

The Case for Change is expected to be reviewed by the AISC at their meeting in October.  If approved, it will move to a project to develop a Case for Endorsement.
