Degree Overview
Personal property management is the management of fixed assets, such as desks, hospital beds, airplanes, radar equipment, etc., at local, state, and federal government agencies, colleges, universities, medical facilities, and private industries. The field had its genesis in the defense contracting arena, in the management of government-owned personal property in the possession of defense contractors.
The Property Management Certificate program is offered entirely online and is the only online venue for Certified Professional Property Specialist (CPPS) certification training. Completing the property management group of courses makes the student eligible to sit for the Certified Professional Property Specialist (CPPS) examination.
Courses satisfy the educational requirements for Certified Professional Property Specialist (CPPS), Certified Professional Property Administrator (CPPA), and Certified Professional Property Manager (CPPM) certifications, in partnership with the National Property Management Association (NPMA).
The certificate program is considered continuing education, which is outside the scope of accreditation and thus not eligible for Title IV funding.
