The CIOB Chartered Membership Programme is a route to becoming a Chartered Construction Manager for individuals with significant management experience. The CMP precedes professional review and chartered membership of the CIOB, a qualification similar to honours degree level.

Speaking after hearing of his success, Tom McCrank said: “I was thrilled when the CIOB got in touch to let me know. To achieve the accolade was beyond my wildest dreams. The course has really developed my management skills, and I am looking forward to continuing with my professional review which will result in me becoming fully Chartered later in the year. It is fantastic to be a part of the Alpha Projects team. The company invests in it’s workforce, offering support and encouragement throughout the process.”

Alpha Projects’ director, Paul Cortese, said on hearing the news: “We are proud of Tom. To achieve top grade in the UK and Ireland is a great achievement. Tom’s commitment, attention to detail, work ethic and ability is second to none. This achievement is a worthy reflection of this, and very well deserved.”
