Registrations are now open for the CIOB Global Student Challenge 2017.
The competition is an online interactive game, in which each team of four students runs a “virtual” construction company in a simulated environment using MERIT software, which stands for Management Enterprise Risk Innovation and Teamwork.
Each team is required to make strategic and operational decisions about marketing, estimating, tendering, finance and personnel management. Universities can submit up to five teams.
There are six weekly rounds as part of the main game, and eight further rounds will be played at the finals. Each round represents a trading quarter, and each company’s performance is rated against KPIs and compared with the other teams.
