Why take this course?

This course provides the underpinning knowledge of commercial facilities management and a qualification at level 4 on the RQF.  IWFM is an industry recognised body and Facilities Management/Managers is a requirement in most private and public sector organisations. Many Service personnel have the required transferable skills to embark on a Facilities Management career after discharge and this qualification will provide further evidence of competence.

“Very well instructed. I was apprehensive about going straight to a level 4 course being out of the academic environment for over 20 years, but Marks instruction and understanding of the subject was second to none.”
