Floor Measurement

New to the Industry

If you are new to BOMA International Floor Measurement standards, BOMA Calgary offers training through an online seminar course. This highly interactive course takes approximately three hours and provides an introductory foundation in the principles of measurement. Get started here.

Upgrading Your Skills

If you are currently a measurement professional, but would like to be certified in the BOMA International Floor Measurement Standards, BOMA Calgary, in partnership with World ICU, has developed the Floor Measurement Self-Assessment.  For information on how to get started with this assessment, please read the following document. This online assessment recognizes your current experience and identifies areas that require training. The cost is $75+GST. If you successfully complete the competencies within the self-assessment you do not need to take the online course.

Once you have completed the self-assessment, you are eligible for validation of those skills by a BOMA Calgary approved Validator. Validators set their own fees for this third-party review. For a list of approved Validators, go here. If you wish to become a Validator, contact us.

If you have a question which was not addressed here, contact us. If applicable please submit a PDF file illustration of the subject area. Your query will be answered in one to two business days and is the opinion of a certified individual and does not represent an “official interpretation of the BOMA Standard”.

If you require the services of a Floor Measurement Professional, consult the Listing of Measurement Professionals  currently certified in BOMA Floor Measurement.

Copies of both the current versions of the Office and Industrial standards are available.
