This course will consider exactly what is meant by Facilities Management. You will look at where the profession has come from leading up to the current ISO41000 definition of Facilities Management.

Courses are held in Leeds and Manchester.
You will look briefly at how FM varies across different organisations, different methods of service delivery and the various services that can be delivered. You will learn about topics such as maintenance strategies, the use of space and Corporate Social Responsibility in Facilities Management.
Finally, you will consider how the service we are providing meets the highest quality standards.
This course is aimed at people new to Facilities Management and those already managing day-to-day Facilities Management operations, who want to consolidate their knowledge and understand FM in a wider context.
It’s great for aspiring managers with existing, practical FM skills who are looking to take the next step, facilities managers who are looking to move into a different sector, or for people with experience in related industries who are looking to move into an FM role.
It’s also ideal for those who are studying for their IWFM Level 3 and 4 qualifications, perhaps by distance learning, who would like some face-to-face tuition to support their studies.
Although this course is open for anyone to attend and is not assessed, the content has been developed in line with elements from the IWFM qualifications at Levels 3 and 4 and includes content relevant to the following units:
– FM3.01 – Understanding Facilities Management
– FM4.01 – An Overview of Facilities Management
This makes it ideal for IWFM qualification learners who are looking to support their studies with face-to-face tuition.
