Certified Apartment Maintenance Technician (CAMT) SP2026 - Philadelphia

CLASS DATES APRIl 28TH & 29TH, MAY 5TH, 6TH

Tuesday, April 28, 2026 to Wednesday, May 6, 2026

This program is recommended for maintenance technicians, porters, housekeepers and other technical service personnel who are interested in advancing their career by earning a nationally recognized certificate. NAAEI has developed the Certificate for Apartment Maintenance Technicians training curriculum and the subsequent exam to help apartment maintenance professionals obtain better knowledge of their roles and responsibilities and to prepare them to obtain the CAMT. The main purpose of CAMT is to prepare participants to effectively maintain, preserve, and enhance the physical assets of the property safely and efficiently, consistent with the objectives of property ownership and in compliance with federal, state, and local law. The CAMT curriculum is based on the Skill Standards and ultimately prepares participants for the CAMT exam as well as for fulfilling their role in the field.  The Skill Standards guide the participants toward the CAMT’s intended learning objectives.
