CBCs are an important part of the CIOB. Membership of Chartered Building Companies and Chartered Building Consultancies enables organisations of any size to demonstrate a commitment to professionalism and best practice. CBCs take membership of the CIOB into a business perspective, and with the CBCs, it is the organisation that is the member.

As a CBC your organisation will be committed to the training and development of staff at all levels.  This commitment will be driven by a passion from senior management to not only raise and maintain standards within the organisation, but to be a part of raising competence and professionalism throughout the construction industry.

For the CBC member:

CBC membership is a powerful marketing tool.  You will be able to call your business a Chartered Building Company or Chartered Building Consultancy.  The CBC logo is available exclusively to members and will serve you as a prestige symbol of excellence and expertise, which readily distinguishes you.  A range of other benefits include events around the country, a ‘find a builder/consultancy’ feature on the CBC web pages, that can link your dedicated page to your own wider website, and exclusive magazine four times a year.

CBCs are marketed towards a recognition of excellence, reflecting their strict membership criteria.
