SkillsUSA/Facilithon 2017

Facilithon 2017

 

Connecting Students, Educators & Industry toward Careers in Facility Management

The FM pipeline team represents a group of dedicated volunteers, including IFMA chapter members, fellows and activated elders who saw the need and opportunity to create a pipeline for high school students to learn about and understand the immense opportunities in Facilities Management. In 2014, our team created the first competitive event in facilities management with SkillsUSA, the second-largest CTSO in the United States.   Click this link to read more about the FM Pipeline

SkillsUSA was formerly known as VICA (the Vocational Industrial Clubs of America).

SkillsUSA is a partnership of students, teachers and industry representatives working together to ensure America has a skilled workforce. SkillsUSA helps each student to excel. SkillsUSA is a national organization serving teachers and high school and college students who are preparing for careers in technical, skilled and service occupations, including health occupations and for further education.


The Facilithon represents the best springboard to facilities management careers through mentorship and competition rather than dogma and repetition.  Read Press release
