Certified Facility Manager (CFM) Practice Exam

Human Resources Management is not classified as one of the five primary competencies for the Certified Facility Manager (CFM) exam. The five primary competencies include Leadership, Project Management, Environmental Stewardship and Sustainability, among others that are directly related to facility management responsibilities.

Leadership emphasizes guiding teams and influencing stakeholders, which is essential for effective management within facilities. Project Management focuses on the planning and execution of facility-related projects, ensuring they are completed on time and within budget while meeting organizational goals. Environmental Stewardship and Sustainability concerns the responsibility of facility managers to implement practices that promote sustainable development in facility operations.

While Human Resources Management is important for various aspects of organizational effectiveness, it is not specifically one of the core competencies recognized by the CFM exam framework, which concentrates more on the operational and strategic aspects of facility management.
