The FMP is the must-have foundation credential for FM professionals and industry suppliers looking to increase their depth-of-knowledge on the core FM topics deemed critical by employers. Facility management is a profession that encompasses multiple disciplines to ensure functionality of the built environment. To be proficient in this profession, individuals require a broad range of knowledge and skills. IFMA periodically conducts global job task analyses (GJTA) to better define knowledge and skill areas for today’s FM professional and to update our core foundation: the competency areas that contain the body of knowledge for facility management.
If you are looking to take your FM career to the next level and earn a globally recognized IFMA credential? or a credential that will help to accelerate an FM’s key transition into your professional career?
IFMA is strongly recommending the FMP program to everyone that considers themselves a facility professional. The FMP credential helps professionals better understand and apply the core elements of the various FM disciplines, challenges their decision-making skills and sets the stage for the CFM credential.
