Special Student Spotlights – Apply Now!
Are you studying facility management and ready to grow your network, boost your skills, and get inspired by professionals from all over Africa? Then this is for you!
As part of the IFMA Global Africa Conference 2025 — taking place on 19–20 August in Lagos, Nigeria — we’re inviting 25 motivated FM students to join the event for free. This initiative is all about giving future professionals like you a chance to experience the FM world up close, make valuable connections, and get involved with the IFMA community.
Here’s what you get:
-
Free entry to the full conference program
-
Accommodation provided (in collaboration with the University of Lagos)
-
Access to student-focused sessions and networking with FM leaders
-
A chance to share your experience through presentations, writing, or volunteering
-
Real exposure to future career opportunities
How to apply?
Just send us: a short motivation letter and a proof of enrollment in a facility management–related course or internship. Email your application to: ifmaglobalafrica@ifma.org. before the deadline Friday 20 June 2025. You’ll hear back by 4 July 2025!

We're especially looking for 15 students from Nigeria and 10 students from other African countries. If selected, we ask you to stay connected with your local IFMA chapter afterwards — for example, by giving a short presentation about your experience, writing a blog, or volunteering in IFMA’s student network.
