Which domain covers knowledge of managing school facilities, including construction, maintenance, and safety?

• A. Facilities Management
• B. Legal and Ethical Aspects
• C. IASBO Study Guide
• D. Technology in School Business

Answer: (A)

This item tests knowledge of facilities management in a school district—the area that covers planning, constructing, maintaining, and ensuring the safety of school facilities. Facilities management brings together project oversight for new buildings or renovations, ongoing maintenance and operations, and adherence to safety codes and district standards to keep the physical plant functional and secure. That direct focus on how buildings are built, kept up, and kept safe is what the question is targeting.

Other domains address different concerns: legal and ethical aspects cover laws, governance, and ethics; the IASBO Study Guide is a study resource; technology in school business centers on information systems and the use of technology in operations.
