An enhanced certification course streamlining the certification courses for:
- Green Mark Advanced Accredited Professional [GMAAP]
- Green Mark Advanced Accredited Professional (Facilities Management) [GMAAP(FM)]
Prior to the streamlining exercise, an industry survey was conducted to assist in the design of the Enhanced GMAAP course that will benefit learners.
Why do we need to streamline the GMAAP and GMAAP(FM)?
- To tailor course curriculum in tandem with BCA Green Mark 2021 (GM:2021) scheme and implementation, which encourages industry and professionals to collaborate and develop green building solutions.
- To upskill/support capability development in the following areas:
- raising standards in building energy performance;
- increasing emphasis on resilience to address climate change; and
- creating healthier environment for building users.
