Important Information about NAAEI Exams

The format of all NAAEI credential exams has changed. All NAAEI exams are now proctored. SEFAA Staff will schedule and register you for your exam after you complete the sign-up form during the first day of class.

Advance notice is not required to schedule exams being taken via LOP.  Candidates who are rescheduling their canceled or failed exams will follow the same scheduling instructions. Retake fee will be charged to the candidate upon login to the scheduling site. There is a seven-day waiting period between exam retakes.


What is PAC?

The purpose of a political action committee (PAC) is simple: to raise funds and elect candidates who understand and support our issues and interests. 

Why Should I Get Involved?

The ability of apartment owners to continue to provide safe, affordable rental housing to our residents, and deliver valued services to them – while doing this effectively, efficiently, and profitably – rests on the continued financial strength of APAC and NAAPAC. Our involvement offers us a seat at the table, increased credibility and influence, and of course continued success within the industry.
