President'sMessage

By thE tiME yOu read this letter, the long, hot days of summer will have all but become a memory, the startup bugs will hopefully be mostly all worked out, and we will all be back in the groove of our normal routines that we have when our buildings are “occupied”. For me, it is one of the few times of the year when I can work and think in the moment...knowing that in a very short time I will be fully into budgeting, planning, bidding, etc. in preparation for the next round of projects throughout my district. I am hopeful that I’m not the only one of us who takes advantage of this time to get away from work for a few days and take a few deep breaths!

thiS iS ALwAyS An exciting time of year, whether it be the smile of a kindergartner stepping into their new adventure, the swagger of a senior knowing they are almost done, the excitement of teachers walking into a brand new building, or the sense of pride coming from the custodial and maintenance staffs who have somehow managed to pull off what only months ago seemed to be a near impossibility. I am writing this in early august, a time of the summer when I find it important to remind myself and the staff I work with that every year we are worried about getting things done, but somehow it always works out due to the dedication and professionalism of each and every person involved.

i hAvE nEwFOunD hOPE in the future of school facilities throughout the state and the attention they are finally starting to receive. We collectively have known for years – maybe even decades – that deferring maintenance for budgetary reasons was something that could only last so long. now, most of our districts have such a backlog and high price tag associated with deferred maintenance that we have no hope of catching up unless it is through the passage of a local bond. Recently passed legislation will start a program to provide state matching dollars to add to locally passed bonds. While there are still many unknowns about how exactly this program will work, and with the program only being funded with $125 million for the first biennium, it is at least a good positive start. Many of us have been asking for and lobbying for this type of funding instrument for years. now it is here, and like OSFMa, hopefully in 30 years the program will have experienced impressive growth and expansion impacting every student in the state!

OSFMA PROFESSIONAL GROWTH APPLICATION GUIDE

The Oregon School Facilities Management Association provides professional certification to qualifying members based on education, achievement, and experience. Two certificate programs are available which are designed to demonstrate a high degree of professional competence and growth. Both growth paths, either the Certified School Facilities Manager or the Certified School Facilities Specialist, have three focus areas:

1. Participation in OSFMA 2. Other professional growth activities 3. Knowledge and skill gained through experiences

While the topics within the areas are different, what is needed to demonstrate proficiency in each area is similar. Some topics you may have previously completed. There may be others that you will still need to accomplish. There is no time limit to follow for completing your certification program. Part I: Participation in OSFMA To be brief, if you want to be certified by OSFMA you need to be active in the organization.

Required Elements: Provide a page describing your activities in OSFMA while you have been a member. Be as specific as you can on the conferences you have attended and the workshops in which you participated. If you received certificates of attendance you may include copies. If you have items in this area yet to complete you can contact the Conference Committee Chair to find out how you can get involved. Do the same for Zone Meetings and other OSFMA activities. Elective Elements: From the list of topics you will need to complete a minimum of two. Here again you need to give dates and describe the activity that demonstrates the completion of each topic selected.

Part II: Other Professional Growth Activities You most likely have participated in a number of formal or informal growth and training opportunities to get the position you now hold. As a professional, it is important that you continue to take advantage of growth opportunities throughout the year.

Elective Elements: This area has three elements labeled I, II, Ill. You need to complete two of the three. Where individual items are listed below the element heading you must demonstrate completion of at least One. The lists are not intended to be all inclusive. You may submit other items that you feel will meet the requirements of the element.

Part III: Knowledge and Skill Gained Through Experience Another area that provides growth is on-the-job exposure. A lot of knowledge is gained through reading books and pamphlets that includes:

A. Codes and regulations B. Operations and maintenance manuals C. Brochures from suppliers D. Standards published by trade groups

Working with people who possess more knowledge and skill on a subject than you do is another valuable way to grow. This area recognizes these important paths to improvement. Over
