BIFMA has launched a new education and training portal to deliver accredited courses that is accessible at BIFMA.org. Initially, BIFMA Learning will serve as the training platform for BIFMA Faculty who are authorized to deliver the association’s CEU-accredited courses in-person or via webinar.
Any associate from a member company may participate. BIFMA currently offers three courses, all of which meet the highest standards for CEUs by the accrediting bodies, IDCEC, AIA, and GBCI.
“We are happy to share our expertise by providing high value continuing education that meets health, safety, and welfare requirements for interior designers and architects”, says Jennifer Wammack, Director of Outreach for BIFMA
BIFMA Learning is launched with the addition of a new course, Attributes of Contract Furniture. This CEU explains eight of the key attributes that drive furniture decisions in the commercial built environment — Aesthetics, Quality, Craftsmanship, Safety, Performance, Health & Wellness, Sustainability, and Verification. The course provides the tools necessary for making balanced and appropriate choices with user safety at the core.
In the near future, BIFMA Learning will expand to provide on- demand content for those seeking to fulfill their continuing education requirements in interior design (IDCEC), architecture (AIA), and green building (LEED AP and WELL AP).
