 Association News BOMA BC is exploring how we can better support Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) across the commercial real estate industry. To do that, we want to hear from you.
We’ve created a short survey (approx. 4–5 minutes) to learn more about your experiences and perspectives. Your insights will help guide future education, programming, and advocacy that reflect the needs of our members and the communities we serve.
Your voice matters. The survey is open to members and non-members. Please take a few minutes to complete it and share it with others who may have insights to contribute.  BOMA BC is excited to announce the release of its much-anticipated Decarbonization Planning Guide. Designed for property managers, asset managers, and building operators, the Guide covers the fundamentals of carbon reduction in commercial facilities, along with a step-by-step process for collaborating with professionals to achieve the emissions reductions required to meet regulatory requirements and remain competitive in an evolving market.
 This online session is designed for property owners, managers, asset managers, and building operators looking to better understand heat pumps.
Attendees will gain confidence in the technology, learn to ask the right questions of engineers, and explore topics like common myths, performance in extreme climates, evolving tech, commercial suitability, the business case, and available incentives.
