FROM THE PRESIDENT – ALAN CRANE CBE
I am aware that there may be concerns about the standards which the CIOB uses for assessing candidates for membership. In a process that commenced in 2010, the Board of Trustees, following advice of the Education, Qualifications, Standards and Practice Board and following consultation and acceptance by the Members Forum has determined that to protect standards it is necessary to make changes to the professional review.
