Advancing FM at IIDEX/NeoCon
Complex, Challenging, Compelling. These three words sum up the FM profession. This year, we’ve covered all the bases at IIDEX/NeoCon with 8 great seminars and a powerful Keynote topic.
You get focussed Facilities Management seminars and important exposure to the design side of the business. By attending IIDEX/NeoCon, you learn how to leverage your skills and advance your department and your career while supporting your company’s core business.
The seminars are chosen by a steering committee of FM professionals that includes IFMA representation and are presented by leading industry experts.
This year, we thought about your career in the profession and added a seminar just for you by bringing in a leading recruitment expert to discuss career advancement, preparing for success and the current marketplace.
We continue the focus on new legislation with two seminars that demystify the new requirements, identify the impact to your company and discuss how you can prepare for it now.
We’ve also taken another twist on Green and the Environment with an expert energy panel that will help you wrestle down your energy costs.
And have you heard about Building Information Modelling (BIM) yet? If not, this is your chance to get a heads-up about how it will change decision making in the future.
Every FM deals with projects, but working with a project manager can be a challenge unless you understand their business and the issues. Our seminar on working with a project manager clarifies roles, issues and the requirements you need to guide the project successfully.
Are you doing a great job but nobody knows it and you can’t sell your ideas? Two seminars focus on helping you get better results, one with strategic techniques to communicating your message in a clear and compelling way that influences your reader while the other seminar tells you how to get attention for your department from the C-suite so you can continue to champion FM and your career while supporting your company’s needs.
Finally, the FM Keynote gives you a rare look at the 2010 Winter Olympic Games from a facilities perspective, focussing on a unique $178 Million dollar Oval in Richmond that will host the long track speed skating competitions and then serve the community as a multi-use facility after the Games. Learn about the complexity, challenges and compelling vision behind this great facility.
Registration for these great seminars is now open and can be found in the seminar section of the IIDEX/NeoCon website.
