Our first speaker, Carrie Dahl with IFMA Education, will be speaking about the recent approval of the IFMA Sustainability Facilities Professional (SFP) credential for GBCI credits along with the Facility Management Professional (FMP).  

The University of Nebraska at Omaha is offering an SFP course this spring with the only opportunity in the nation to take advantage of grant funding from a state agency, Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality (NDEQ). SFP Instructor Rick Yoder will also be answering questions regarding the course offering and how the content of the SFP applies to the USGBC and LEED professionals. 

Yoder will also tie the IFMA training to the education needs identified by the Omaha LEED community through the "What Follows LEED?"sessions held at UNO College of Business Administration.
