AFE Improves Features, Functions of Web Site
The Association for Facilities Engineering has retooled www.AFE.org, adding a wealth of features that, due to cutting-edge design and technology, make it easier than ever to use.
"We recognize that members and visitors to our site have no time to waste, so ease of navigation was crucial," CEO Laurence Gration said. "We also recognize that AFE is an important resource to facilities professionals worldwide, so we have uploaded an extraordinary amount of data — from technical articles to event notices, links to our chapters, and all the applications and forms necessary for our certification and membership programs."
Best of all, he said, the site encourages users to be interactive.
"This site offers members the platform they've long wanted and needed for personally exchanging information," Gration said. "The discussion forums are leaps and bounds ahead of anything we've had before. I anticipate that, due to the 24/7 nature of its availability, this will be a hotbed of activity, as people begin posting questions and advice."
Throughout its five decades of existence, AFE has been known for encouraging networking among facilities colleagues. That tradition continues, with the online member search feature.
Another hallmark has been our "help wanted' section, which enables employers and recruiters to list their openings. Gration said the AFE Career Center has been — and will continue to be — expanded.
Gration encourages everyone to explore all parts of www.AFE.org, and to come back often as developments unfold. "It is now is a very dynamic place."
