Curriculum
Facilities management (FM) is the organisational function of integrating people, places and processes within a built environment to improve their quality of life and the efficiency of the core business. It is all about looking after the buildings and people working therein. Many disciplines and services, from building maintenance, human resource management and vendor relations to safety and security, fall under the umbrella of FM. Its employees operate in various settings, including offices, hotels and hospitals, sports and recreational areas, logistical centres, care homes and educational institutions. The FM sector is rapidly growing, and its roles are expanding to include more responsibilities and broader skills. This course will take an in-depth look at facilities management and what it requires. Find the right career for you within the wide range of roles available in the FM sphere.
There are qualities that one must possess to be a facility manager. Become familiar with a facilities manager's characteristics and the philosophy an FM should have to succeed in this profession. Explore the dos and don'ts and the techniques of managing various facilities such as schools, health centres, offices and more. We will show you the need for facilities managers to look after the workspaces to benefit the employees working within them. Identify the symptoms of workplace anxiety and devise programmes that will help the employees improve workplace culture and increase their general morale, resulting in higher productivity. Discover the legal obligations attached to the management of different departments in a facility as well as how you could make a massive difference in the productivity of a company.
Facilities management is everything that is not a core business. Are you wondering what that implies? This complex and demanding field with high responsibility is also fulfilling and financially rewarding. Since the FM sector is global, some roles in the industry offer excellent opportunities for travelling and working in other countries. With more buildings and companies springing up in cities around the world and relatively low entry requirements for โin-the-fieldโ roles, knowledge of facilities management will be of great importance. Property consultants, developers and builders and anyone can take this course. With an increase in demand for talented facilities management personnel worldwide, this is the best time to build the skills, knowledge and confidence to pursue a rewarding career in this field.
