Selecting FMA®
Here are ten questions that can help you decide.
Do you:
- Manage facilities for a company or an organization that manufactures a product or provides non-real estate services as its primary business?
- Strive to create a productive work environment that fosters staff performance?
- Need to maintain quality work environments while being held financially accountable?
- Want to ensure that buildings reflect the organization's culture, in addition to maintaining and operating them in the most cost-efficient manner?
- Control overall work flow through interior space utilization and incorporation of new technologies?
- Want to justify facilities expenditures as investments on which your organization can expect a return?
- Work with architects, engineers, and construction companies?
- Administer general services contract?
- Need to ensure the comfort and safety of personnel within a facility?
- Determine whether a building meets federal and state regulations?
If you said yes to any of these questions, the FMA® designation program can enhance your career by making you a more effective, knowledgeable facilities professional, thus positioning you as a key strategic professional within your organization.
This program teaches you to manage facilities in a way that best supports staff and fits into the organization's overall objectives. You'll develop valuable skills in strategic planning, project management, corporate finance, capital investment, and physical asset management.

Whether you're a novice or an experienced facilities manager, or someone in a related profession who could benefit from knowing how to create a quality work environment that maximizes productivity, the FMA® program is right for you.
"We chose the Facilities Management Administrator designation for our directors of engineering because the program both reinforces the skills they've gained in the field and prepares them for new challenges in managing our complex buildings systems"
