ISSA Announces Second Group of CIMS Experts
ISSA has announced the second group of individuals to achieve certification as official ISSA Cleaning Industry Management Standard (CIMS) Experts. This addition brings the total number of experts to 72 individuals representing 25 U.S. States and Canadian provinces, as well as Mexico.
The second group includes three Canadians. They are: Karen Hill-Whitson of Breeze Facilities Solutions, Utopia, Ont.; and Darrell Campbell and Paul Goldin from Avmor Ltd., Laval, Que.
Becoming a certified CIMS expert positions an individual to provide training or consulting services to those cleaning organizations interested in complying with the Standard and preparing to certify to CIMS – a new, consensus-based industry standard that sets forth the universally accepted management principles that have proven to be the hallmarks of well-managed and customer-centered cleaning organizations.
“ISSA is delighted to have such a diverse group of individuals become official CIMS experts,” said Dan Wagner, director of CIMS for ISSA. “Those who have attended a workshop and committed themselves to playing a valuable role in preparing cleaning organizations for certification have expressed tremendous excitement with regards to the new business possibilities.”
Due to strong interest in becoming a CIMS Expert, a third and final workshop for 2007 is scheduled for September 25 in Woodbridge, NJ. The workshop will be sponsored by the New Jersey Sanitary Supply Association, which has identified CIMS as a valuable program for its members and the industry at large.
