Join our Committee

Would you like to help shape the direction of the North East & Cumbria Region? We're looking for enthusiastic people brimming with fresh ideas to join our Committee to build our programme of events and activities. It's a great opportunity to meet people outside your organisation and to volunteer your skills to the wider profession. You could even get involved with national CIHT initiatives.

Another great benefit is that your time volunteering counts towards your continuing professional development (CPD). Please contact us on e: northeastandcumbria@ciht.org.uk if you would like to know more.

Mentoring - are you applying for CEng, IEng, EngTech or TPP qualification with CIHT?

CIHT Mentoring is available in North East & Cumbria to all CIHT members interested in or working towards an Engineering Council or Chartered Transport Planning Professional registration. A friendly panel of mentors can be contacted, and a mentor assigned to you.

Our regional mentors provide advice, guidance, and encouragement to their mentees on their journey to becoming professionally qualified. Mentors will help their mentees identify the knowledge, skills, and experience for the relevant competence requirements of their professional qualification and advise on demonstrating this in the submission and at the professional review interview.

If you are interested in getting a mentor, you can request one here: Request a mentor.
