“With almost 15 years of experience in equipment operations/ maintenance and construction projects, I thought I was already an expert in facility management. I was wrong. The IFMA FMP Credential Program courses have provided me with tons of information - from procedures, processes, evaluations, cost and people management, finance, and a lot more. I now have various new tools to help me manage my work better and smarter.”
—Efren Garcia, FMP, Facilities Supervisor, InterContinental Hotels Group, Baguio City, Philippines

“The quality and relevance of the course material is excellent. The course content, layout and real world application is very good and very pertinent to the work I perform every day. This course is very powerful for this profession, as it is a great overview of many different aspects of FM. Thank you to all the people who dedicated their time consolidating the materials.”

It encompasses broad and deep insight into all of the many different aspects of FM. It is an invaluable complement to my on-the-job education. Along the way, I have been able to apply the material and use the books as great reference tools as well."

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. I feel stronger in my knowledge base knowing I passed the rigorous FMP online self-study program.”
