APPA Unveils Major Digital Transformation

New Website & Member Experience Coming Soon

June 2025 — APPA – Leadership in Educational Facilities is excited to announce a comprehensive digital transformation initiative, anchored by the launch of a brand-new website and a suite of modernized member services. This transformation is designed to enhance how APPA members connect, learn, and grow, laying the groundwork for a more personalized, engaging, and accessible experience.

What’s Coming?

New Website Launching This Fall

Beginning as early as September 2025, APPA will begin rolling out a redesigned website that delivers a seamless, intuitive, and mobile-optimized user experience. From streamlined navigation to powerful member tools, the new website will serve as a gateway to everything APPA has to offer.

Modernized Member Experience

Members will enjoy simplified access to resources, event registration, credential management, and publications—all through an integrated platform designed for speed, clarity, and ease of use.

Curated Community Engagement

APPA is introducing a dedicated community platform where members can connect year-round with peers, thought leaders, and topic experts. This new space will foster deeper engagement, shared learning, and continuous dialogue across the educational facilities profession.

On-Demand Learning via APPA’s LMS

A new Learning Management System (LMS) will empower members to pursue professional development on their own schedules, with access to on-demand courses, certificates, and advanced learning tracks tailored to their roles and aspirations.

A Phased Rollout Through Spring 2026

Initial features will debut in the coming months, with major enhancements arriving in phases through Spring 2026. This strategic rollout ensures a smooth transition for members while allowing APPA to implement thoughtful, high-impact improvements.

Ongoing updates and innovations will follow, ensuring APPA stays ahead of technology trends and continues to meet the evolving needs of our membership community.

“This transformation is not just a technology upgrade—it’s a bold reimagining of how APPA empowers its members to lead, learn, and connect. We’re building a platform for the future of educational facilities leadership.” — Dave Ulmer, Chief Operating Officer, APPA
