Glad to meet you Gary. Are you interested in becoming a volunteer as a Advocate, Wingman, or Liaison? We are looking for volunteers to help military personnel leaving service with adjacent MOS to enter a career in FM.
Also, are you interested in IFMA's education programs (ie. competency courses, FMP, SFP, and CFM)? Feel free to reach if you have questions.

Welcome to the new Military Community Engage group!
My name is Byron Edwards, a board member for the new IFMA Military Community. I am a 20-year retiree of the U.S. Army. I am currently employed as Facility Manager for a federal government agency. I have been employed there for over 18 years. I have joined the IFMA Military Community board to help veterans with adjacent military occupations into facility management. I have been an active member of IFMA and my local chapter for over 18 years also. I would love to hear from you questions about our new community or questions about facility management.
I encourage you all to share who you are, what you do, what you are hoping to get out of the community, a fun fact and anything else you'd like to share.
