Welcome to the website for the Eastern Region of APPA (ERAPPA). As the regional affiliate of APPA International that spans the Eastern United States and Canada, our organization promotes and facilitates the learning and engagement of facilities professionals. We provide professional development scholarships to our institutional members, as well as educational programming and networking opportunities for all our members, and are committed to fostering collaboration, sharing knowledge, and empowering our members to achieve their goals.

There are ten chapters within our region. I would encourage you to seek out your local chapter and attend their meetings. These meetings provide low-cost professional development and great networking opportunities. ERAPPA’s annual meeting held each fall is another great venue for learning, meeting colleagues, and developing relationships with our supportive business partners. In addition, ERAPPA and the chapters provide APPA-sponsored professional development throughout the year. Look for announcements about Supervisor’s Toolkit, Leadership Academy, Pathway to Professionalism (P2P), Certified Educational Facilities Professional (CEFP) credentialing, and webinars. Lastly, explore the many resources and training that are available through APPA.

Please explore the website to see the opportunities that are available to you – your local chapters, ERAPPA, and APPA have much to offer to help you be a successful facilities management professional and I invite you to take advantage of these resources and opportunities.

As you explore the website, please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you may have.  Your input is important; ERAPPA is YOUR organization.   You are what make ERAPPA special and why I am looking forward to serving as your president for the upcoming year.
