CIOB is looking for more 'scholars'

The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) has announced the two recipients of this year’s Sir Ian Dixon Scholarships, and is now on the lookout for next year’s potential winners.

The scholarship involves a twelve-month study of a construction management topic which is of mutual interest to the individual’s host company, the Worshipful Company of Constructors, the CIOB, and the individuals themselves.

For example, this year’s winner Ben Potts from Killby & Gayford is investigating ‘How to effectively implement an EMS & ISO 14001 standard in Medium Sized Building Contractors (specifically at site level)’; while Costain’s Edward Basterfield is researching ‘The Post Study Training and Development of Construction Graduates’.
