Sustainable Development
You only need to take a look at the stated goals of any major player within the construction industry to see that sustainability is high on everyone’s agenda. Organisations are looking very closely at both their own environmental performance and that of their supply chain. Looking forwards they can see challenges in respect of low carbon design, renewable energy, green building, waste management and more.
Naturally, professional bodies such as ICE are working hard to ensure that their members are able to play a vital role in implementing sustainable development. For example, the attributes to be demonstrated at Chartered Professional Review (CPR) for CEng MICE are:
a) Sound knowledge of sustainable development best practice.
b) Ability to manage engineering activities that contribute to sustainable development
c) Committed to leading continuous improvement in sustainable development
You can find out more about these attributes by downloading the ICE 3001 document.
