Today at 11 AM/ET we update our understanding of best practice literature relevant to the information and communication technology enterprises in education communities. Our online meetings coincides with the day of two IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee teleconferences at 14:00 Central European time and 2:00 PM Eastern time in the Americas. Open to everyone. Use the login credentials at the upper right of our home page.
Today we examine standards-setting activity of non-profit trade associations that set academic standards; with specific interest in how these organizations reference other organizations that set standards for the built environment.
From up in a cherry picker… be gone, fear of heights!

Our first impression of a community is its visual environment, which is reflected from the pretty integration of built and natural forms. College campuses are oases of beauty; or used to be were it not for sign pollution. With increase in education community construction + advances in sign-making technology + growth of the administrative state + hottened litigation environment, signage has become visual “pollution” to many and, to others, a likely permanent pandemic era cultural affinity to be controlled and told what to do.
The education industry provides a natural home for “hall monitors”; personality types with close relatives in the standards conformance and compliance community.
How many signs are too many signs and how can leading practice discovery and promulgation among accredited standards developers contribute to solutions? It may well be that there is no other industry on earth than the American education “industry” that is so replete with signage. After Title, Scope and Purpose, and after Definitions, the topic of signage is found in a surprising number of titles and deserves a dedicated colloquium of its own.
Join us today when we sweep through the surprisingly large catalog of titles devoted to signage. Use the login credentials at the upper right of our home page.

We follow the construction spend rate of the US education industry; using the US Census Bureau Construction Spending figures released the first day of every month.
We encourage our colleagues in the education facilities industry to respond to Census Bureau-retained data gathering contractors in order to contribute to the accuracy of the report.
Many research universities have large medical research and clinical delivery enterprises that provide significant revenue. We periodically scan public consultations for literature that sets the standard of care for the facilities and technologies in these enterprises in education communities.
