The IFMA Legal Industry Council has a strong commitment to credentialing and continuing education for its members. This takes many forms, including:
- Local Round Tables – in select legal markets, and in conjunction with our sponsors, the council will host legal round tables on a variety of topics. These round tables are open to both members and non-members, as long as attendees have an interest in law firm facility and real estate management. If you are interested in hosting or participating in one of these events – or in becoming a sponsor – please contact president@ifmalic.org.
- Educational Webinars – with a membership that is spread across the country, it can be challenge to get LIC members together in person. Because of that, the council offers several webinars and round-table discussion groups (via teleconference) throughout the year. Recent topics have included best practices in space planning, new technologies being implemented in law firm facilities, FASB lease accounting changes, and ergonomics (with a focus on standing workstations). If you have an idea for an educational webinar you would like to present, or that you would like us to put on, please contact us at programs@ifmalic.org.
