How will the knowledge gained from the ProFM program help you in your day-to-day work responsibilities and/or in your career overall?
For the day to day, the program as a whole allowed me to look at things in a fresh new light, I learned skills that I really didn’t know I needed and will apply them to make myself a better Facilities Manager, and in turn our Facilities Department will be better. For my career, the ProFM credential shows a commitment to the industry and the dedication to continuously improve.
How will the knowledge you gain through the ProFM help your company?
Efficiencies and process improvements learned through the content will improve the operation of our department and contribute to the continued success of the company.
Would you recommend that other FM professionals earn the ProFM credential?
I would absolutely recommend the program to others in the FM industry. It’s a great way to show what you’ve already learned through experience, and a great opportunity to gain additional skills. Every company does things a little bit differently and FM professionals can get tunnel vision on how things should work but the program does a really good job of giving a much broader view of the industry which allows improvements in your current role, or the skills to quickly adapt if another job opportunity arises.
