Professional body for construction management & leadership
We are the Chartered Institute of Building, championing the science, ethics and practice of the built environment worldwide.
About us
We have a Royal Charter to promote the science and practice of building and construction for the benefit of society, and we’ve been doing that since 1834. Our members work worldwide in the development, conservation and improvement of the built environment.
Our Events
Every year the CIOB organises hundreds of CPD and networking events, award ceremonies and competitions across the globe.
Professional Development
Like most professional bodies, we believe it’s essential for members to keep up to date with the latest developments and knowledge in their field – it’s called Continuing Professional Development.
