Join us for this event, organised by CIHT Northern Ireland, which will provide an opportunity to find out more about the CEng and CTPP professional qualifications that CIHT can provide. This will include insight from a current CIHT Professional Reviewer, as well as from candidates who have been successful who will share their experiences of the process. This will be held in-person at the David Keir Building, Queen's University Belfast.
This event aims to provide information regarding the different professional qualifications that CIHT can provide, with a focus on CEng and CTPP.
A current CIHT Reviewer will cover what happens in a typical review day and provide guidance as to what they look for in a successful candidate. We will then hear from successful candidates who will discuss their experiences of the review process and give a background to the examples they used during their reviews and any hints or tips that might be beneficial to future candidates.
A Q&A session will follow to allow opportunities for attendees to ask questions of the panel during a free flowing conversation.
Light refreshments will also be provided.
This event will be held in:
Room 01041
David Keir Building,
Stranmillis Road,
Queen's University Belfast,

Aimed at those who are considering going for professional review in the near future or those who are just starting the process.
