CIOB Professional Review Support for Construction Professionals

The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) Professional Review is the final step on the path to becoming a Chartered Member (MCIOB)—a globally respected qualification for construction professionals. This stage requires you to submit a Competence Report and demonstrate your technical knowledge, ethical practice, leadership skills, and industry experience.

For many applicants, the CIOB Professional Review is a high-stakes, complex task, especially when translating years of experience into a structured, evidence-based report. That’s where CIOB Professional Review support services can make all the difference.

What Is the CIOB Professional Review?

The Professional Review assesses whether you meet the CIOB’s competence criteria in areas such as:

• • Construction technology and management
• • Health, safety, and welfare
• • Contract administration and procurement
• • Leadership and professionalism
• • Continuous professional development (CPD)

You must write a Competence Report (2,000–3,000 words), backed by project examples and references, and mapped to CIOB’s seven key competence areas.

Challenges Faced by Applicants

• Uncertainty in selecting project examples

• Difficulty linking experience to CIOB’s competence criteria

• Trouble writing in a clear, structured, and evidence-based format

• Limited time due to professional commitments

• Concerns about grammar, tone, or formatting

Even experienced construction managers, site supervisors, or project leaders may find the CIOB review daunting—not due to lack of experience, but because they’re unfamiliar with how to frame it according to CIOB’s expectations.
