The Chartered Institute of Building<\/a> (CIOB) has renewed its commitment to\u00a0BuildForce<\/a>, which connects service leavers and veterans with opportunities in construction, ahead of Armed Forces Day (27 June)<\/h2>\n

The CIOB itself recognises many military qualifications as part of the membership application process and provides programmes that can support those who do not have the necessary construction experience into a professional qualification, such as chartered status with the CIOB.<\/p>\n

Ex-military personnel develop strong transferrable skills in the forces such as leadership, project and team management, but often lack specific construction knowledge.<\/p>\n

BuildForce helps to bridge that gap<\/a>, providing access to training, mentoring and working with sector organisations and employers to help them gain built environment qualifications and key industry connections before they leave the services.<\/p>\n

BuildForce Alliance partner<\/h3>\n

Since becoming a partner, the CIOB has promoted BuildForce to its 48,000 strong membership as the go-to organisation for recruiting service leavers. On a local level, the CIOB attends military exit fairs to introduce management-level careers<\/a> in construction to service leavers.<\/p>\n

The CIOB has also amplified the important work of BuildForce to policymakers through various parliamentary receptions.<\/p>\n

Boosting the economy<\/h3>\n

Caroline Gumble, chief executive of the CIOB, said: \u201cIt\u2019s important to collaborate to establish and strengthen recruitment paths into our sector, with routes from the armed forces into construction being a key part of that.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are dedicated professionals who have a great deal to offer to the construction sector and acknowledging that is important while supporting our ex-military personnel, driving construction forward and boosting the UK economy<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Caroline Logan, BuildForce programme director, added: \u201cBuildForce has been working with the CIOB since 2016, and their support to the programme has been instrumental.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have helped expand our alliance by encouraging their partners to engage and get involved, adding further value to our mentor network.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are therefore delighted the CIOB has signed our Veteran Charter, a pledge of their continued support and look forward to developing our relationship and further engaging within their wider cohort connecting with our military talent pool and securing further employment into the construction sector.\u201d<\/p>\n
