WebFM condition assessment tool training

As of 2015, all 10 Year Property Plans (10YPP) must be prepared by a 10YPP Consultant who has completed the WebFM condition assessment and 10YPP training.

We offer 2 training courses for project managers on the use of the WebFM condition assessment tool and methodology:

• 2-day Introductory training course for school project managers who are new to the on-line system, and
• 1-day Advanced course for project managers who have already completed the introductory course.

There is no charge for these courses.

10 Year Property Plan (10YPP) training

This one-day course is designed to give consultants an understanding of their involvement in the production of a good quality 10YPP and will focus on the planning aspect of 10YPP preparation and development.

This course will provide consultants with the skills to identify key elements of the 10YPP, identify and prioritise projects, write a scope of works that meets Ministry requirements, accurately complete the new 10YPP template, interpret and analyse data and facilitate a discussion with the board of trustees about the 10YPP and innovative learning environment concepts. It will also give consultants an understanding of how to work in partnership with the Ministry and the school in developing their 10YPP.

In order to get the most out of the course, it is expected that consultants will have already completed the WebFM condition assessment tool training.

There is no charge for this course.
