A Member Benefit with Real Impact

Feedback from members using the platform highlight the positive impact that mentoring is already having:

Ellen Earle, BA (Hons) MCIHT, Principal Transport Planner, JNP Group, said:

I have had a great experience with the mentoring platform. Matching with my mentor has definitely accelerated my progress towards professional qualifications but also my general development, and I may not have connected with such an experienced mentor if it wasn’t for the CIHT mentor platform.

Mr Sathyan Yogalingam MIEAust CPEng CMEngNZ MCIHT CEng, Ashghal Public Works Authority, said:

I am sincerely grateful for the exceptional support and guidance provided by my CIHT mentor. Their encouragement, insight, and commitment were instrumental in helping me achieve Chartered Status.
