Australian Building & Construction
Higher Education Round Table

The Australian Building & Construction Higher Education Round Table was established by the Australian Institute of Building (AIB) following representations from senior academic staff at a head of school and head of program level who indicated a need to liaise directly with the building profession and amongst their colleagues within the university sector. It is the peak body for academics associated with building and construction courses to liaise directly with industry. The website for the Round Table is located at:

www.construction.asn.au

The Round Table provides an opportunity for the senior staff responsible for the strategic direction of courses in building and construction disciplines to liaise with the building profession. Importantly, it provides an opportunity for the building profession, through AIB, to understand the challenges that universities are facing so that we can be a more effective advocate on behalf of university staff and the Schools in which they reside. Membership of the Round Table as at is as follows:

Full members: Australian Institute of Building
International Council of Construction Managers
Central Queensland University
Curtin University
Deakin University

Observers: Bond University

Each member university is represented by the university's head of school and head of program and AIB is represented by the National President and Chief Executive Officer. Observers are those academic institutions offering higher education qualifications in building and construction disciplines which are not accredited by AIB. The secretariat of the Round Table is managed by the AIB Education Manager who is located in Canberra.

The Round Table meets at least once per year although acts as an effective forum for the sharing of information between universities and industry.

Questions relating to the accreditation process or the accreditation status of qualifications can be directed to the AIB Education manager at education@aib.org.au
