||||
| ||||
| ||||
AN ACT concerning professional regulation.
| ||||
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||
represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||
Section 5. The Community Association Manager Licensing and | ||||
Disciplinary Act is amended by changing Section 40 as follows: | ||||
(225 ILCS 427/40) | ||||
(This Section may contain text from a Public Act with a | ||||
delayed effective date)
| ||||
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2020) | ||||
Sec. 40. Qualifications for licensure as a community | ||||
association manager. | ||||
(a) No person shall be qualified for licensure under this | ||||
Act, unless he or she has applied in writing on the prescribed | ||||
forms and has paid the required, nonrefundable fees and meets | ||||
all of the following qualifications: | ||||
(1) He or she is at least 21 years of age. | ||||
(2) He or she provides satisfactory evidence of having | ||||
completed at least 20 classroom hours in community | ||||
association management courses approved by the Board. | ||||
(3) He or she has passed an examination authorized by | ||||
the Department.
| ||||
(4) He or she has not committed an act or acts, in this | ||||
or any other jurisdiction, that would be a violation of | ||||
this Act. | ||
(5) He or she is of good moral character. In | ||
determining Good moral character under this Section, the | ||
Department may take into consideration whether the | ||
applicant has engaged in conduct or activities that would | ||
constitute grounds for discipline under this Act. Good | ||
moral character is a continuing requirement of licensure. | ||
Conviction of crimes other than felonies may be used in | ||
determining moral character, but shall not constitute an | ||
absolute bar to licensure. | ||
(6) He or she has not been declared by any court of | ||
competent jurisdiction to be incompetent by reason of | ||
mental or physical defect or disease, unless a court has | ||
subsequently declared him or her to be competent. | ||
(7) He or she complies with any additional | ||
qualifications for licensure as determined by rule of the | ||
Department. | ||
(b) The education requirement set forth in item (2) of | ||
subsection (a) of this Section shall not apply to persons | ||
holding a real estate broker or real estate salesperson license | ||
in good standing issued under the Real Estate License Act of | ||
2000. | ||
(c) The examination and initial education requirement of | ||
items (2) and (3) of subsection (a) of this Section shall not | ||
apply to any person who within 6 months from the effective date | ||
of the requirement for licensure, as set forth in Section 170 | ||
of this Act, applies for a license by providing satisfactory | ||
evidence to the Department of qualifying experience or | ||
education, as may be set forth by rule, including without | ||
limitation evidence that he or she has (i) practiced community | ||
association management for a period of 5 years or (ii) achieved | ||
a designation awarded by recognized community association | ||
management organizations in the State. | ||
(d) Applicants have 3 years from the date of application to | ||
complete the application process. If the process has not been | ||
completed within the 3 years, the application shall be denied, | ||
the fee shall be forfeited, and the applicant must reapply and | ||
meet the requirements in effect at the time of re-application.
