Quotes:
“We have shared values between the organizations. The primary thing we want to do is have the best impact we can on the facility management industry and we recognized NFMT did that.” - Randy Olson, (5:44)
“We’re looking at strategies, procedures, and technology that people can implement immediately and that will have changes in their overall facility.” - Amy Brown, (9:24)
“That’s ProFM. That’s what we do. I look at it as the bridge between the undergraduate degree and the actual working world. So you have the undergraduate degree, but then how do we actually deliver a solution when we get out to the facilities?” - Randy Olson, (12:08)
“I’ve heard from people that have been in the classes in the past that sometimes studying can be overwhelming for adults who haven’t done it in a few years. So it’s nice to have that face-to-face interaction with classmates and an instructor.” - Amy Brown, (20:34)
