CIOB has designed a series of events and activities to inspire and support built environment professionals in advancing their careers – whatever stage they are at. These are created to inspire growth and development, from CPD to tailored support for company members.
Aligned with the key themes of our corporate plan, they offer a diverse array of opportunities, including specialist conferences, customised CPD programmes and celebrations of success, including recognising those who achieve chartership and honouring finalists at our CIOB Awards.
With many exciting conferences and activities planned, we have sponsorship packages available for each event.
