Mace partners with building institute to upskill staff
International construction company Mace has entered into a training partnership with the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) Africa, extending the institute’s training platform to local Mace employees.
“As we already have an existing partnership with the CIOB in the UK, we felt it was important to provide our employees in Africa with an opportunity to become members of the body.
“Our training partnership with the CIOB offers bespoke membership to our staff at any level, whether it’s a young professional or an individual that has years of experience but no formal qualification. Through the CIOB training partnership, for example, they follow a path to attain their membership with the help of an assigned mentor,” Mace sub-Saharan Africa operations manager Craig Morrison explained.
The CIOB was recognised throughout Africa. “The CIOB gives our staff that level of training which also strengthens our continued professional development practices, whether through knowledge sharing sessions, site tours or formal training,” he said.
CIOB Africa regional manager Liezl Botha noted that the partnership was a major step towards creating “crucial” awareness in South Africa and the rest of the continent around the training platform and its internationally recognised membership.
Morrison noted that the company was “actively encouraging” its teams to obtain CIOB accreditation, mirroring Mace’s UK operations. “Owing to the flexibility of the CIOB training courses, our staff members can work with their mentor to meet their deadlines, tailored around their working hours,” he added.
Ten Mace employees have already started the CIOB training programme.
