ASHRAE certification, course recognized as FBPTA aligned
Personnel who work at U.S. federal buildings can now include their ASHRAE certification and an ASHRAE course in their professional development plan.
ASHRAE’s Building Energy Assessment Professional (BEAP), Commissioning Process Management Professional (CPMP), and Operations & Performance Management Professional (OPMP) certifications, and the ASHRAE Learning Institute’s Fundamentals of Building Operation, Maintenance and Management course have been reviewed by the Facility Management Institute of the U.S. General Services Administration and are now considered Federal Buildings Personnel Training Act (FBPTA)-Aligned. The process included reviewing learning objectives, skills taught, and material covered.
