Quality Across the Board
12 October, 6.30-8pm, Cardiff
Please join us for our first face-to-face event since 2019. For this keynote talk on quality in construction we bring together three eminent experts in the field – each coming from a different standpoint.
Paul Nash, past CIOB president and chair of the Construction Quality commission, will talk about the work of the commission and the steps that the CIOB is taking to promote best practice and provide better education on quality management, for our members, the wider construction community and for the benefit of society.
He will be followed by Professor John Edwards, who will make the case why, particularly in Wales, retrofit should be an important part of the quality debate going forward.
The session will be rounded off by Francois Samuel, who will give the Welsh government’s perspective and outline the work ongoing in this field. There will then be ample opportunity for a healthy debate on the issues raised.
