The International Facility Management Association (IFMA) is searching for volunteers to steer a new competency model advisory committee that will help shape and elevate careers in facility management.

IFMA is accepting applications from its members with five or more years of experience in the field. The committee will oversee the updates and maintenance of a dynamic, career-based competency model for FM professionals. The application deadline is February 23, 2024, for a three-year commitment.

The goal is to create a committee of applicants that represent a variety of stakeholder groups working in: international locations; urban and rural areas; and public and private organizations, both large and small. Diversity is key, with varied educational backgrounds, facility types and military experience.
