Our Training Camp Roundtable Discussions bring facility management professionals together for candid, peer-to-peer conversations on today’s most pressing challenges and opportunities. These sessions are not lectures but rather interactive experiences designed for dialogue, collaboration, and real-world problem-solving.
Participants will be able to choose which of the 3 training camps they want to participate in to exchange experiences, surface best practices, and walk away with practical, actionable takeaways. Check out the training camp session details that will be held during the ConnexFM Mid-Year Conference:
