The CIOB has announced a new partnership with the Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce.
With 4,500 members, the organisation is the largest accredited chamber of commerce in the UK.

Its membership base ranges from sole traders to large corporates, across a broad range of sectors.
By partnering with the CIOB, the chamber of commerce can offer members even more industry news and guidance, as well as discounted training courses certified by the CIOB and events designed to support innovation and share globally recognised standards of best practice.
“We will now be able to share information, offering discounted training courses and working collaboratively on events for both organisations”
Hazel Yorke, the CIOB’s business development manager north, said: “As a like-minded organisation, we are very excited to work together to support members, sharing best practice, providing knowledge and offering more opportunities through these challenging times.”
Diane Elebert-Morgan, property and construction group manager at Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce, said: “This new partnership will add knowledge and value to our members, particularly those in the property and construction sector.”
