FM Sustainability: Creating Your Action Plan
FM Hot Topic Course
Learning the most effective way to introduce sustainable practices into your facility management operations can be a challenge. Where do you start? What do you need to know? What are sustainable practices? And once you answer these questions, how do you implement your changes?
In addition to addressing sustainability concepts and practices, this course will teach you how to:
- Compile and assess key information about your facility.
- Look for potential cost savings in implementing sustainable practices.
- Identify potential activities and areas to include in a realistic sustainability project for your organization.
- Use models and frameworks to make a business case for your sustainability project.
- Develop a strategy to win approval for your project.
- Use various communication techniques to sell your ideas.
- Develop a concrete action plan for a short-term sustainability project.
This course is ideal for those who have experience in facility management and are interested in greening facility management operations, but have little or no prior experience with sustainable FM practices. If you are interested in pursuing LEED® certification, this course provides a basic introduction to sustainability concepts that puts LEED activities into perspective.
