The FMP and your future

Designed to bring you one step closer to achieving the CFM credential, the most respected designation in facility management, the FMP is an ideal catalyst to early candidacy.

"The FMP is a great way for IFMA to reach out to new professionals. It is very comforting to be accepted into a family like IFMA when starting a career in the facilities industry. There is something very reassuring to know that there are other people in the world that are facing the same obstacles, problems, and issues that you are. There may even be someone out there who has found a solution to a problem that is similar to yours. In a field that is very weighted towards experience, the FMP somewhat represents a leveling factor. Experience is key in the facilities field, but knowledge is becoming more prominent throughout the industry. The FMP recognizes individuals who possess the knowledge to be successful facility professionals." — Paul Ratkovic, CFM, FMP EMCOR Facilities Services Site Based Operations
