MHLI ONLINE ACADEMY

Certified Military Housing Inspector (CMHI)

This certification course is designed for personnel involved in the management of both government housing facilities and private sector inspections. Students will be exposed to the necessary skills and tools to successfully inspect to meet DoD minimum acceptability criteria. They will also be taught to identify and manage the sustainment, renovation and modernization workloads of military housing facilities. Taking this course will provide a greater understanding of inspection principles for existing or newly constructed facilities, both the private sector and governmental.

Students will be exposed to the various phases of construction from site work to final acceptance, change of occupancy maintenance requirements, and management of contract vehicles in a military setting. A portion of the class is devoted to understanding mold, it’s causes, implications, and practical treatment of affected areas, as well as other safety and livability issues.

CDPM™ Level 1

MHLI is proud to join with our strategic partners, the Institute of Real Estate Managers (IREM) and the National Apartment Association (NAA) to present the first Certification program specifically intended for persons involved with military housing privatization initiatives. The CDPM™ Level 1 offering covers the privatization process from concept to pre-transition. The goal is to prepare management level staff for the requirements of the privatization process and to help recognize the challenges of the management process in the traditional housing office. This course covers the Congressional legislation applicable to privatization, the Department of Defense guidance, a comparison of the various Services’ programs, ethical considerations, private sector maintenance, financial and human resource practices as compared to current Service practices. Also discussed are the traditional management roles of communicating and directing workflow, team building considerations and change management to better prepare the management staff to successfully transition from a traditional housing operation to a privatized operation.
