Systems Maintenance Technician (SMT®) and Systems Maintenance Administrator (SMA®) Designations
BOMI International’s SMT and SMA designation programs help you increase the operating effectiveness of your building and make you more valuable to your organization. Designed to meet the needs of hands-on technicians and building engineers, the SMT and SMA programs offer instruction in technologies and trends in the maintenance field that show you how to manage energy-efficient, environmentally sound, cost-effective building systems. Both SMT and SMA courses detail specific operating systems, while the SMA program includes additional courses covering environmental issues, administration, and building design and maintenance. Through these programs you’ll gain career-building skills and knowledge, as well as recognition as an integral part of your facilities team.
SMT and SMA Course Requirements:
Our SMT and SMA programs offer two levels of proficiency for career development.
The first five courses detail specific operating systems and make up the SMT program.
-Refrigeration Systems and Accessories
-Air Handling, Water Treatment, and Plumbing Systems
-Electrical Systems and Illumination
-Boilers, Heating Systems, and Applied Mathematics
-Energy Management and Controls
Three additional courses complete the program by addressing the broad issues of concern to systems administrators. Added to the five above, these three courses will earn you the SMA designation:
-Administration
-Building Design and Maintenance
-Environmental Health and Safety Issues
You do not have to take the courses in any specific order; however, if you are new to BOMI’s curriculum, we recommend you begin with subject matter you are already familiar with and save new material for later study. This will ensure immediate success in your professional development.
