• Training for Campus Planning and Facilities Management—Explore training programs that promote the development of leadership, management and advanced administrative skills for facilities professionals.

According to the company, experienced presenters and subject matter experts have been carefully selected to serve as session leaders and include Jennifer Root, manager of safety programs for the University of Texas at Austin; Keith Gray, J+J Flooring Group director of product innovation; and Darlene Taylor, manager of training services at the University of Texas at Austin.
