Internet editorial

In the previous issue of Facilities a listing was given of providers for facilities management (FM) education and training in the UK. In this issue we identify FM educational providers internationally. The Web sites give details of information on FM programmes at both undergraduate and postgraduate level which are currently available or are being planned. The listing also includes providers of FM seminars.

The listing is not intended to be exhaustive, but seeks to give a flavour of the FM programmes available internationally. No comment is made on the nature of the programmes. Interested readers are advised to access the Internet details of each programme, so as to ensure that any specific programme meets their needs.
