posted 18 Apr 2018, 08:54 by Rich McEvoy

York University is pleased to host the 2018 OAPPA Annual Conference (Ontario Association of Physical Plant Administrators – Ontario Chapter of APPA) from May 29th to June 1st, 2018 in beautiful Toronto, Ontario. This conference brings together facility management and design, development and planning professionals from across the province to collaborate, strategize, and strengthen networks across the university sector. You don’t want to miss this one!

The conference theme for this year is Fossil Fuel-Free Education: Creating a Road Map to a Carbon-Free Campus. The planning committee chose this theme because the notion of transforming a campus to be carbon free starts with the built environment. Be it in reference to changing technology, processes or projects in development and the ever evolving regulatory framework, as exemplified by the Ontario Cap and Trade program.

We’re looking forward to an exciting event at OAPPA 2018!
