The Chartered Institute of Building has partnered with electronic information specialist Technical Indexes to produce the new "CIOB Technical Directory". Contained on one CD ROM, it is a vast resource of CPD quality information covering all current technical, managerial, educational, commercial and scientific best practice.
Examples of information included on the CIOB Technical Directory are:
· Over 30 of the latest CIOB Technical
Papers on all aspects of the construction process. Each year a
minimum of 10 new Technical Papers will be added.
· CIOB Occasional Papers on areas such as tendering, procurement,
risk evaluation and fast track construction.
· Key excerpts from CIOB published titles such as the Code
of Practice for Project Management, Code of Estimating Practice,
Environmental Management in Construction and the Contractors Guide
to Conservation.
In addition to this extensive information resource, the CIOB has included the first new Membership Directory since 1997. The directory, listing all members at every grade, can be interrogated by name, town, post code and membership number.
The CD ROM operates in the familiar Windows
environment via stand alone PC or networked over a WAN or LAN.
All information has been thoroughly indexed and keyworded enabling
users to search, catalogue and compile information from many sources
at once. This scope of information retrieval will make the CIOB
Technical Directory an invaluable resource for professionals,
students and libraries alike.
Subscription to the new CIOB Technical Directory is at a special
members’ price of £80+VAT per annum and includes a
6 monthly update, therefore ensuring every subscriber has the
latest CIOB Membership Directory and technical information. For
