Welcome to IFMA-CT

The goals of the Connecticut chapter of IFMA are to promote the Facility Management profession in the state of Connecticut, provide a forum for education and training programs pertinent to the practice of Facility Management and though our monthly meetings networking and information sharing opportunities.

The IFMA Connecticut Chapter board is dedicated to working more closely with you the members.


President's Message

Welcome to the IFMA-CT chapter website.  The IFMA-CT chapter has been supporting facility managers in Connecticut for more then twenty-five years.  If you have been a facility manager for decades or for just days we offer many opportunities for you to learn, connect and advance in your career.

Our monthly meetings are typically held on the third Thursday of each month except for August.  We usually begin with some time to network and then an educational program, building tour or social program.  Information on the upcoming events is at: www.ifma-ct.org/events.htm.

IFMA International offers many educational opportunities which can help you advance in your career and three credentialing opportunities.  The knowledge-based Facility Management Professional credential is designed to bring you one step closer to achieving certification as a Certified Facility Manager.  The newest credential is the Sustainability Facility Professional which is an assessment-based certificate program delivering a specialty credential in sustainability. The Chapter schedules training sessions to help our members reach thir professional goals. Watch your e-mails and the web site for announcements.

There are opportunities to volunteer to serve on one of the Chapter’s committees or on the executive board. Being on one of the Committees does not take up a lot of time but can be very rewarding.  It requires your input, energy and effort to help the committee succeed in its function.  Consider volunteering to help your Chapter, and also think about others you believe might join you on a committee.  Information on the committees and contacts for the committee chairs are at: http://www.ifma-ct.org/committees.htm.  The Executive Committee holds one board meeting a month and will provide you with opportunities to enhance your leadership skills. 

Thank you for your interest in the IFMA-CT Chapter.  Through your involvement the Chapter will grow and help you and your fellow facility managers in Connecticut.

Eric Connery
