At APPA, we believe that the quality of academic programming is directly related to the quality of the educational facility. APPA enables educational institutions to share, elevate, and transform the learning environment. APPA provides training and professional development, performance measurement and evaluation tools, standards, best practices, research, credentialing, and thought leadership to more than 18,200 educational facilities professionals from more than 1,100 learning institutions.
Business Partner membership is open to all corporations who provide products and services to the facilities management marketplace or are interested in reaching facilities managers in the education environment. Our membership year cycle is April 1 – March 31. Learn more about APPA’s Visionary Strategic Framework and how our business partners can engage in this new frontier.
