Strata Choice Free Seminars
Strata choice are running a series of free seminars over the next few months, open to all Flat Chat readers regardless of who their strata manager is. Spaces are limited so log on to the the Strata Choice website and sign up now.
Here’s what they are offering:
August 28: By-Laws & dispute seminar
September 26: The role of the Strata Committee
This seminar is geared towards Strata Committee members that may have less experience than other members, and would value greatly from additional insight into their roles, responsibilities and rights within strata management.
Learning with a reputable and acclaimed strata management company will give you the security and confidence that the information provided is up to date, credible and relevant to your needs. Because we deal with Strata Committee members on a daily basis, we are in tune with the areas of concern, relevance and what would best empower our Strata Committee members to feel more confident in making decisions in their strata schemes.
Topics in this seminar include:
- Meeting conduct;
- The duties and obligations of the Strata Committee;
- The powers of the Owners Corporation;
- The role of the Strata Managing Agent; and
- Issues relating to risk management for Owners Corporations.
