10/10/2016 0 Comments MCIATI am delighted to announce that I have attained the professional title of 'Chartered Architectural Technologist' MCIAT. I went for an assessment interview last Friday and have been successful in my application. It is a protected title. I have been an ACIAT member for ten years, but had lost momentum to apply for full membership. It is very important to me that our students and graduates are well represented within a professional body that has their primary best interests at the forefront of the organisation. As I am the first programme board member to attain MCIAT, as a programme board, we are now in a position to progress with CIAT accreditation of our BSc (Hons) Architectural Technology undergraduate degree programme. I have also been asked to use my position within GMIT to represent CIAT in Galway, to give other members in the built environment community of Architectural Technologists a focal point through which to meet for training and mentoring purposes. It is a great honour to be asked to facilitate this and I will certainly get on-board to do this. It is so important that the profession is recognised by the wider community, that our students and graduates are well represented, that there is grounding and weight behind the Institute from all corners of the country. I am delighted with my new title and to be part of an Institute which I align myself closely with. As the assessor of the interviewees on Friday put it, 'It is the start of my new career'!
