For over five years the CIOB Academy has been the home of training and CPD for construction professionals across the globe.
Offering a mixture of classroom and online content, it has delivered professional development resources, routes to CIOB membership and industry-leading qualifications via a dedicated platform. The CIOB Academy is now bringing members a completely new product: Academy Zones.
The aim is to provide professionals with access to world-leading information and resources on core areas of built environment work and the latest tools and techniques in the construction industry today. All zones will contain content from leading-edge companies, each boasting particular specialisms.
Themed zones
The Academy Zones will be themed into different areas of interest, with plans for zones on the topics of innovation and sustainability, as well as many others.
First to be launched is the Innovation Zone, which aims to improve the knowledge of built environment professionals in the field of digital construction and the beneficial role it can play in their projects.
Each zone will be divided into sections, hosted by a leading organisation, containing a variety of information in different formats, that can be accessed anywhere, anytime and on any device.
Host organisations
Every host organisation will be a leader in its field, and will provide up to five pieces of content in its section. Typical content will include papers, webinars, infographics, films and case studies. Content can be updated every quarter.
The information on the zone will be reviewed and approved by the CIOB Academy prior to being posted. Content will be informative or educational, thought leadership or sharing of research; products will not be promoted through this platform.
The content can also point delegates to the hosting company’s website and we will also promote the zone via CIOB communications channels such as social media, the CIOB Connect app and member e-newsletters.
Ahead of the launch, the CIOB sponsorship team is looking for companies that have created educational and informative content that will be of interest to our members, and would like to purchase their own section on the Innovation Zone or suggest a new zone.
Further details
Watch out for more details on the CIOB Academy Innovation Zone in the late autumn when it is launched for CIOB members to access.
