IFMA SUSTAINABILITY FACILITY PROFESSIONAL®

Going for High Performance? Aim Higher! Sustainability Facility Professional® (SFP®)

Optimum “sustainability” for savvy CEOs and facility professionals goes beyond certifying the premises with the preferred building rating system. It is a commitment to improving the facility’s impact on the environment, productivity and people — not just today, but tomorrow too.

Become an SFP and play a key leadership role in creating, managing and operating sustainable facilities. The SFP is the credential for FMs seeking a higher level of sustainable performance. Go farther, faster. Engage all your company’s FM assets to truly maximize triple bottom line results.

LEORON is now offering the IFMA SFP Credential Program™ course to provide FM professionals, related industry professionals, and product and service providers with a complete picture of how SFPs can improve the sustainability of facilities in all eight major categories of sustainable facility management as defined by IFMA: energy, water, materials and resources, workplace management, indoor environmental quality, quality of services, waste and site impact. The SFP program is made up of three focus areas designed to equip professionals to integrate sustainability efforts with the organization’s values and strategies, present a business case for a sustainability initiative, evaluate initiatives from a financial point of view, and track and report accomplishments.
Our courses will help you gain the knowledge, test your ability to apply that knowledge at your workplace, and earn the SFP credential. Take advantage of instructor expertise, peer interaction, and a structured course that will keep you on track to meet your goals. The full course is 36 hours and presented in five days with 8 hours each day, for approximately a total of 36 hours for the entire curriculum of courses. Five days of classroom time with Jon E. Martens, FMP, SFP, CFM, CFMJ, IFMA Fellow, a certified SFP Instructor.
