APO Site Reviewer Training-Online, Instructor Led Training-November 3, 2020

IPMI Training: Accredited Parking Organization (APO) Online Site Reviewer Training

The Accredited Parking Organization (APO) program establishes a benchmark of the quality by which a parking management organization conducts its business and maintains its facilities and services. The site review is a required component for applicant organizations and must be completed by an IPMI-approved site reviewer who has successfully completed this training.

APO Site Reviewers are solely trained by IPMI to evaluate organizations pursuing accreditation under the program. This course will cover quality management and continuity of applying best practices to each site, determining evidence to satisfy the standard, and the role and ethical expectations of an APO Site Reviewer. Participants receive a copy of the APO Manual for Applicants and the matrix, a planning tool for implementation.

APO Site Reviewer training is offered as an instructor-led online class. The class covers the experience of what it is like to submit the application and accompanying evidence.

This is a four-day course on November 3, 5, 10 & 12 course from 2 p.m. ET to 3:30 p.m. ET for each of the four sessions.
