About IWFM
The Institute of Workplace and Facilities Management (IWFM) is the professional body for workplace
and facilities practitioners.
We exist to promote excellence among a worldwide community of over 17,000 and to demonstrate
the value and contribution of workplace and facilities management more widely.
We empower professionals to upskill and reach their potential for a rewarding, impactful career. We
do this by advancing professional standards, offering guidance and training, developing new insights
and sharing best practice.
It is our vision to see workplace and facilities management as a distinct profession – recognised
beyond the built environment for its ability to enable people to transform organisations and their
performance.
The IWFM was established in 2018. It builds on the proud heritage of 25 years of the British Institute
of Facilities Management
As the pioneering workplace and facilities management body, our vision is to drive change for the
future. To be the trusted voice of a distinct profession recognised, beyond the built environment, for
its ability to enable people to transform organisations and their performance
Our mission is to empower and enable workplace and facilities management professionals to reach
their full potential and have a rewarding, impactful career, creating the conditions for the profession
to thrive through leading edge thinking, sharing best practice and upskilling our people.
• credit requirements: that is the qualification requires you, the learner, to have accumulated
specified numbers of credits at a specified level or levels
• rules of combination: that is the credits have to have been awarded for mastery of one or more
pre-specified combinations of relevant content
• units: that is the acceptable combinations of content have to be specified in terms of acceptable
combinations of units, with the relevant units being categorised as being either mandatory (all of
which will be required) or optional (only some of which will be required).
• learning outcomes: that is statements written to define what you, the learner, can be expected
to know, understand or be able to do as a result of the relevant learning.
• assessment criteria: that is descriptions of activities whose performance has been suggested as
providing confirmation that the relevant learning outcome has been mastered
For each unit/group of units that you are going to be assessed on, you should read the learning
outcomes and the assessment criteria very carefully to ensure that you can meet those criteria in
enough detail to achieve the unit.
Each unit has to have the ability to be independently assessed and as a result this may cause
possible duplication of assessment criteria across a number of units at the same level. However,
centres should be working with you and your employer to group units together for purpose of
assessment, this grouping of units should alleviate any duplication.
To achieve a unit, you must meet all of the assessment criteria. If you fail to meet the assessment
criteria, your assessment will be referred i.e. “not achieved” therefore you should consider:
• are you trying to do something which is too difficult for you?
• is the training you have received adequate?

If for any reason you are unhappy or have any concerns with the centre you have undertaken a
qualification with you should contact the centre and follow their complaints procedure.
If after you have exhausted the centres procedures and you are still unhappy with the response you
have received please refer to the IWFM Awarding Organisation Complaints policy:
Any complaint should be submitted in writing, normally within one month of the event which is the
subject of the complaint and addressed to IWFM at the contact details at the beginning of this
handbook.
Assessment Assessment
Summative
before learning of learning
Assessment Qualification
Formative
during learning
Once you embark on the programme, the centre should undertake formative assessment to check
your progress during the programme of learning. At the end of the programme the centre should
undertake summative assessment to check the level of learning is adequate and has provided you
the tools needed in order for you to undertake the assessment (final assessment) after learning,
which will lead to the award of the qualification. This final assessment may take various formats:
If you have been in facilities management a long time and believe you have amassed enough skills
and knowledge to complete a unit assessment without doing any further learning, you will be able to
register with a centre for “assessment only”. (NB not all centres offer this service, so please check
with the centre before you register).
Centres will charge for this service as they will have costs associated with establishing whether you
have a good chance of achievement, the registration and assessment process and the support they
provide throughout the assessment/s.
You may have completed some earlier training or learning which you believe meets the learning
outcomes for a particular unit. In this case, there is a process known as Recognition of Prior Learning
(RPL), which you should discuss with the centre right at the start. The centre is obliged to work with
you on RPL, if it is applicable.
An alternative is undertaking a competency qualification (e.g. the IWFM Level 4 Diploma in Facilities
Management Practice), this will be assessed in the workplace. The competency qualification is
aimed at those individuals who have FM experience and are able to demonstrate their knowledge
and competence across the range of units within his or her own working environment.
Initial Assessment
Previous experience?
Yes Partial No
Assessment planning
Assessment planning Will take into account both evidence that the learner might
be able to provide from their past work activity which
typically will be work products and witness testimony and
assessment opportunities that arise from their normal day
to day work activity.
IWFM qualifications require that learners achieve all of the assessment criteria (AC) in a unit
specification (eg Unit FM4.01). This does not mean necessarily that each AC needs to be assessed
individually or separately. They can be, but IWFM’s experience as the Awarding Organisation tends
to show that learners produce better assignments when the subject matter is treated more
holistically. For this reason assessments might combine individual assessment criteria (and in some
cases, learning outcomes) into single tasks or activities.
Your answers should be set in the context required by the activity or task. But you must also make
sure that your answers do meet the ACs as they are defined in the unit specification. Try to keep
your answers as specific to the ACs as possible; in particular avoid including everything you know
on a topic just because you can. It is helpful to think in terms of "must - should - could" regarding
the content to be included to achieve the most appropriate balance. Additional guidance has been
provided in the unit specifications to assist learners and assessors in this regard; this is shown by
the text in red italics. As the term suggests, the additional guidance is there to provide an indicator
of the type and level of information required to address the AC satisfactorily. Sometimes the
additional guidance will be grouped to cover several ACs. If the words “no additional guidance” have
been used, this normally indicates that the AC is sufficiently self-explanatory on its own without the
requirement for additional guidance.
Good presentation and layout is important in written assignments. Use headings and sub-headings
to assist the assessor. Make it clear to the assessor in the text of the assignment which ACs you
are addressing.
Command words
ACs also contain “command” words. Typically at Levels 3 and 4 these are “explain”, “describe” and
“identify”. Occasionally an AC might ask you to “analyse” or “evaluate” the subject matter in hand
(this is a greater requirement at Levels 5 to 7). Command words are defined in glossaries in the
qualification specifications. You must ensure your answer satisfies the command words used in the
AC, so for example, an answer that simply lists a number of factors or issues will not be adequate if
the AC asks for an explanation or description. Generally speaking, answers do not need to be
exhaustive (ie covering every possible factor/issue). It is usually more effective to provide a broad
overview of the subject matter (perhaps bullet-pointing the main factors or issues) and then expand
on selective factors or issues to describe or explain them in greater detail. If you can relate these to
your own experience or organisation, so much the better.
Demonstrate Can do what the assessment criteria requires. The learner will have to
provide evidence of actually doing the requirements of the assessment
criteria/task
Examples
The additional guidance in the unit specifications will often ask you to provide examples to support
your answer. It is an important aspect of the IWFM qualifications that learners can demonstrate the
application of acquired knowledge to the practical workplace. Your own experience and the
organisations you have worked in are the best sources of examples because you can describe them
confidently and recognise meaningful opportunities for applying newly acquired knowledge. But
sometimes this is not possible because you do not have sufficient personal experience in the unit
you are studying. In this case you might have to look wider than your own situation; investigate what
happens in your present organisation or perhaps carry out some research on the internet. The IWFM
website often proves a useful resource in this respect.
As a suggestion, examples should provide some brief context and show the extent to which theory
or good practice is (or perhaps is not) demonstrated by the example, together with your comments
on its relevance (for example by identifying potential improvements such as client satisfaction,
compliance with legislation, better use of resources or more effective management of cost or
business risk). Also, try to ensure that examples used are appropriate to the level you are studying
at. Avoid using “low-level” examples, e.g. using a basic operational problem or task to illustrate a
higher management issue.
Diagrams are frequently useful in conveying complex ideas. These should be based on your own
original work. If you are using someone else’s work or idea (e.g. theoretical business models) it
must be referenced. Also, diagrams should not stand in isolation; their relevance to the submission
should be explained or described in the text of the assessment. Avoid using diagrams and
illustrations just for effect. If an item adds no real value to demonstrating your knowledge and
understanding, then don't include it.
This point can be extended to the use of appendices and computer screen prints. If these are
essential to demonstrating your knowledge and understanding of the subject matter (and therefore
are required to be read by the assessor) they can be included. If they are simply copies of company
documentation (with no actual input from the learner) used to supplement the assignment, they are
unlikely to be of much assessment value.
Word count
Finally, some advice on word count; word count should be treated as limits and not as targets.
For guidance on word count IWFM advises learners to aim between 675-800 words per credit of the
unit (e.g. for a 6 credit unit the word count should total between 4050 – 4800 words).
The maximum word count must not exceed 1000 words per credit.
Learners are naturally keen to demonstrate the full extent of their knowledge but IWFM’s experience
is that quality is not necessarily synonymous with quantity. It is interested in the quality of the
learner’s assessment rather than the volume of words used. IWFM prefers that learners develop
and maintain a style that is concise, focussed but sufficient in meeting the requirements of the unit
without unnecessary padding. As mentioned above, it is helpful to think in terms of "must - should -
could" regarding the content to be included to achieve the most appropriate balance.
Summary
• Provide your answer in the context of the task or activity that has been set.
• Make sure your answer addresses all of the relevant assessment criteria. It is fine to combine
ACs for this purpose, especially when they address common themes, and/or a holistic answer
provides a better demonstration of your knowledge and understanding of the subject matter.
• Use the additional guidance in the unit specification to ensure sufficiency of the information you
provide. (The additional guidance is there for a reason).
• Ensure your answer complies with the relevant command words (e.g. explain, describe, analyse,
evaluate).
• Provide one or more relevant examples to support your answer, especially if the additional
guidance indicates this.
Guidance on referencing
This guide highlights some of the referencing requirements when using different sources. It contains
examples of references that can be referred to when writing assessments.
Please note: IWFM runs all assessments through the plagiarism checker “Turnitin”. If part of
your answer is not referenced to the original source it may be classed as plagiarism.
What is referencing?
Referencing is indicating in assessments that you have used material that has not originated with
you. This might include factual information, data, images, opinion, direct quotation, or summarising
or paraphrasing the work of other people.
Why reference?
In assessments, it is not acceptable to use the words or creative outputs of others (whether published
or unpublished, including material from the internet) without explicit acknowledgement of the author.
To do so is classed as plagiarism and could lead to an investigation by IWFM in accordance
to the Malpractice and Maladministration policy.
Understanding how to use the work of others, to develop your own insights into a subject and spark
new ideas is an important skill. When researching for assessments, make sure you take note of the
source you are using. In your notes, make sure you identify where you are paraphrasing and where
you are recording direct quotations from the source. This will be particularly important if you are
taking notes over a longer period and then reviewing them later.
How to reference
Although there are many referencing techniques, the most widely used system is the Harvard style
of referencing.
The basic requirements for incorporating references into your work are to supply the family name of
the author(s) (or authoring body) and the year of publication in sentences and paragraphs. The first
component of the referencing system is inputting this into your text (in-text referencing). The second
component is the full details of all references used, given in a list at the end of your assessment.
Both components have to be included in any submitted piece of work.
Types of referencing
There are several ways of including sources in your work. You can summarise, paraphrase or directly
quote the information. You may also wish to secondary reference and/or refer to an author with
more than one publication in a single year. Whichever you use, you must let your assessor know by
setting out the referencing details in a subtly different way as shown below.
Summarising
If you are summarising the overall argument or position of a book or article then you only need to
insert the author’s name and year of publication, you do not need to put page numbers in the text or
in the reference list.
Paraphrasing
If you are paraphrasing a specific point from your source you should include page numbers in the
text, as well as the author’s name and year. This makes it easier for your assessor to find the
information being referred to.
Short quotation
Short quotations should be put in double quotation marks and included in the body of the text with
the page number(s).
In-text example:
… is what some say, however Wiggins (2010, pg. 19) argues that “Often the senior management of
the organisation does not understand the full scope and range of these [FM] responsibilities.”
This view is a valid point because…
Reference example:
Wiggins J. M. (2010) Facilities Manager’s Desk Reference. Chichester: John Wiley and Sons Ltd
Long quotation
Longer quotations should be indented from the main text as a separate paragraph. Quotation marks
are not required but pages numbers should be included.
In-text example:
Following the implementation, the final stage of benchmarking is monitoring, which is an important
aspect of facilities management.
Not only is it important to monitor progress against the agreed programme but also to
continuously review the relevance of the strategy’s proposals in relation to organisational
requirements, which can change at short notice. (Packham and Bernard Williams
Associates, 2013, pg. 19).
Reference example:
Packham M. and Bernard Williams Associates (2013) IWFM Good Practice Guide: Benchmarking.
Bishop’s Stortford: IWFM.
Secondary referencing
Secondary references are authors that refer to the work or ideas of others in their own work. For
example, if author ‘A’ makes reference to author ‘B’s work in his book.
In the text you should state: author B (year of B’s work, as cited in author A, year, page no.).
In your reference list you should reference the source you have used to get the information from
(which is author A’s book).
In-text example:
McMahon’s experience (1994, as cited in Parahoo. 2006, p. 246) draws attention to the dilemma
surrounding the issue of persuasion when attempting to recruit participants.
Reference example:
Parahoo, K. (2006) Nursing research: principles, process and issues. 2nd edn. Basingstoke:
Palgrave Macmillan.
If you need to cite two (or more) publications by an author published in the same year, you will need
to distinguish between them in the text and in the reference list. You do this by allocating lower case
letters in alphabetical order after the publication date
In-text example:
Most false-belief tests use children with a mental age of 3-4 years but all those children with autism
tested had a mental age higher than this (Baron-Cohen 1989a). In a further experiment (Baron-
Cohen 1989b) children with autism were asked what they thought the brain was for.
