About PMIC The Property Management Institute of Canada www.pmic.ca is an organization focused on creating and delivering timely and engaging professional development content for the commercial real estate sector within Canada and abroad. We utilize modern, innovative e-Learning technologies that effectively respond to the evolving needs of professionals involved in building operations, as well as property and facility management. The PMIC’s latest initiative, the Building Operator Designation (BOD) Program, is being developed with input and support from real estate industry professionals across North America. About BOD Our goal is to provide Building Operators with relevant information that will help advance their overall skills and knowledge, allow them to work at their personal best, prepare them to select and liaise with product/service suppliers, and to remain informed on new emerging technologies and applicable regulatory and legislative rules impacting the operations of buildings. We have worked cooperatively with CRE industry professionals to establish a comprehensive program that recognizes all the skills necessary to be a Building Operator in today’s ever-changing environment. The overall designation that will be granted to a Building Operator will require the completion of all program certificates or, in lieu of a given certificate, the completion of other licenses or programs that are acknowledged as meeting PMIC and BOD Program requirements. There are approximately 8 modules per certificate that are delivered in an engaging, modern, and unique fashion, including in-line and post-module exams. The Building Operator Designation will be available in both official languages and other languages based on demand numbers.
