Education


Institute for Facilities Management
The Institute for Facilities Management is APPA's premier educational program.  Designed as a four-track course of study, the Institute is held twice yearly and includes core programming in General Administration, Maintenance & Operations, Energy & Utilities, and Planning, Design & Construction. 

Listing of courses and electives

Supervisor's Toolkit
Supervisors Toolkit has been specifically designed to meet the needs of the facilities management professional.  It is a structured, open-ended and pragmatic approach to developing supervisors.  Not so much a teach program as a development process, the week-long Toolkit is designed to help supervisors achieve both personal and professional growth.

Supervisor's Toolkit: The Nuts and Bolts of Facilities Supervision 

Leadership Academy
The purpose of The Leadership Academy is to enhance and further develop leadership throughout the educational industry.  Designed in tracks, the Leadership Academy provides opportunities for professionals to increase their awareness of industry issues, to learn the skills necessary to handle today's changes, and to discover the leadership potential that lies within each of us.

Entitled Cleanliness and Learning in Higher Education, the study was based around the five levels of clean identified in APPA’s Custodial Staffing Guidelines for Educational Facilities.
