A delegation from the Chartered Institute of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) came to LSBU on 18 Nov 2019 to meet and present CIBSE and its relevant industries to our HNC Building Services Students.

The visit organised by construction practice lecturer Dr Luis Gomez-Agustina, involved meeting and networking with students as well as the delivery of an inspirational and motivational talk on the career prospects and opportunities in the concerned industry.     

Valuable professional development advice was shared by a Fellow of CIBSE who is also Managing Principal of Elementa, a building services company with strong focus on the future of intelligent buildings. CIBSE membership routes and Engineering Council professional registration opportunities were also well expounded. The students showed clear interest in the themes being  presented, judging by the many questions posed and after talk discussions. Luis has planned to have the visit of CIBSE and Elementa again for next semesters for the benefit of many other student cohorts.
