What Does a BSc (Hons) in Facilities & Workplace Management Degree Qualify you to do?

29 Jun 2022

For many that undertake the BSc (Hons) in Facilities & Workplace Management degree, they will be learning about a lot of what they already know from their many years of working in the facilities and workplace and management industry.

What the course offers is a chance to show that your practical experience is backed up by theoretical knowledge. This degree will make your CV far more robust and credible to potential employers, or even your current employer when you apply for a position within the company.

This degree will qualify you to take on additional responsibilities within your current role, or even allow you to move across departments or sectors, as you will have gained a comprehensive understanding of the facilities management industry in multiple different contexts.

If you have been working in FM for a long time, and have ascended the chain of command, but are now finding yourself unable to progress further, this degree will give you the qualifications necessary to make that next step in your career.

Before this degree, you may have found yourself part of a wider team charged with the task of managing a property or facility together. Upon completion of this degree, you will find yourself in a position where you can actually head up that team, using the leadership skills you have learned from the expert tutors and industry leaders that teach this programme.

Thinking about returning to study as an adult can feel like a big step. I often hear learners say, “I’ve got plenty of experience, but it’s been years since I’ve hit the books.” My role is to dispel those doubts and help you choose the right course to advance your career. Because I’m often the first person you’ll speak with, I take the time to truly listen and to understand your experience and what success would look like for you. My goal is to make the idea of returning to education feel less daunting and more like the exciting next chapter that it should be. It’s rewarding to speak with students at graduation. Their achievement often does wonders for their career, but it also transforms their personal confidence. It’s incredibly satisfying then to help new students take that first step, knowing I’ll see that same pride when they graduate.
