More than 80 people attended a ‘Meet the CIOB’ event in Belfast in January where staff and members from the Northern Ireland hub showcased the benefits of membership of a professional body.

Visitors, including students, CIOB members and others from across the built environment sector, heard about the resources, training and development opportunities, and wellbeing support available to CIOB members. They also learned about its mentoring programme and Tomorrow’s Leaders initiative.

There was also a range of exhibitors from across Northern Ireland’s construction sector.

Roger Gillespie, chair of the Northern Ireland hub, said: “I was delighted to see such a large turnout for the event. The engagement from the attendees who were able to hear and speak directly to CIOB staff and committee members was extremely positive.”

Nick Cuffe FCIOB, operations director with ICW, said: “Following the event our Belfast team is really looking forward to closer ties with CIOB during 2023.”
