Further Learning 

ABS in collaboration with London South Bank University, has developed a Sustainable Facilities Management programme. 

This interactive course requires delegates to implement a real life project of their choice that will demonstrate the benefits of SFM, ideally to be carried out within their organisation.  The programme combines classroom learning supported by mentoring whereby delegates have regular access to expert help and advice for their project throughout the 5 month programme.

The programme includes strategies that have delivered and sustained significant financial and environmental benefits for ABS’ clients. Click here to see how Imperial College Healthcare is achieving annual savings of £570,000 and 6,000tCO2 from the strategies covered in the SMF programme.

Please refer to the course brochure or SFM Training & Workshops for more information on the programme, delegate selection and fees.
