The CIOB worked with members and industry stakeholders to develop TechCIOB and launched a pilot programme earlier this year. Sign-ups are already in full flow.
TechCIOB: recognising thought leaders
CIOB chief executive Caroline Gumble said: “I am delighted that our TechCIOB membership is now open for applications, as this is a significant development for us and for the wider industry.
“The new grade allows CIOB to extend our support to even more professionals working in this important industry by recognising and awarding post-nominals to technical specialists, who have become experienced professionals and are often thought leaders in their area of expertise, sometimes having spent decades honing their craft.
“I am pleased CIOB is now able to offer membership to some of the most talented individuals within the construction industry and welcome them into the CIOB community.”
