ConstructionSkills set Construction Challenge for South East Professionals

Following last year’s successful events in the North West and the South West regions, the CIC-ConstructionSkills Team hosted a Construction Challenge event in the South East region on 26 June 2007.

The aim of Construction Challenge is to promote teamwork and leadership skills and encourage interdisciplinary learning and development. Over 70 young professionals from a variety of disciplines within the built environment industry, took part in teams consisting of 4 to 5 members. The exact nature of the task selected for the event was revealed to teams for the first time on arrival at the venue.

The task though tough, proved to be very enjoyable and brought out the highest level of skill and competition between all the teams. Faber Maunsell who entered three teams, finished in first and third place while second place was awarded to Atkins.
The next Construction Challenge event will be in the Yorkshire and Humber region on Wednesday 4 July at the Royal Armouries in Leeds.
