About Us

The Construction Industry Council (CIC) occupies a unique role within the UK construction industry. Its members represent over 500,000 professionals working for, and in association with, the construction industry and more than 25,000 construction firms. It is the representative forum for the industry's professional bodies, research organisations and specialist trade associations.

The breadth and depth of its membership means that CIC is the only single body able to speak with authority on the diverse issues connected with construction without being constrained by the self-interest of any particular sector of the industry. CIC, CITB-ConstructionSkills, CITB (NI) are working in partnership as the Sector Skills Council for construction.

As part of its remit within ConstructionSkills and in conjunction with the involvement of its Member Professional Institutions, CIC is committed to help advance the importance of Continuing Professional Development across the sector, hence the creation of this website.

The website brings together learning opportunities for Built Environment Professionals, regardless of profession or institution, allowing you to find events, seminars, courses and learning materials focused on particular topics/subjects. One of the key aims of this website is to empower you to adopt a more meaningful approach to your CPD and to help provide the guidance and support to facilitate this.
