Join us for the South West Emerging Professionals Competition where we will highlight the work of emerging professionals in the region. Eligible applicants for the competition must be in the first 10 years of their career. For further information, please contact southwest@ciht.org.uk.
The CIHT South West celebrate the very best the region offers across the key areas of highways and transportation. They are open to everyone: members and non-members; small and large organisations; public, private and third sector.
Being able to present effectively whilst engaging your audience and, subsequently, being able to field challenging technical questions is a key skill for those working in the transportation industry. Whether engaging stakeholders, making a case for investment, or presenting project outputs to your client group, presenting is an essential skill.
If you’re an Emerging Professional in the first ten years of your career, we’re keen to give you a platform to develop your presentation skills, and an opportunity for you to earn some kudos (and a prize!) at the same time.
We recognise that the transportation industry in the South West is expansive, covering many sectors. This offers a wealth of potential. We don’t want to constrain the discussion—this is an opportunity for you to shine, sharing your transport interests.
What we are looking for is:
Your presentation will be delivered virtually via an online webinar platform. The audience will include CIHT members who register to watch, and a judging panel comprising David Watkins (Chair) and other members of the South West region committee. Following your presentation the judging panel will ask you questions on your presentation. Demonstrate your talents to the South West regions transportation community
Great! Please submit a 150-word abstract of your presentation, via the online submission form, by Friday 8 April 2022. We also encourage all members in the region to join and support our emerging professionals.
Successful applicants will be contacted to present their submissions at the competition via webinar on the 10 May 2022.
