A busy Summer for the Institute
31 August 2024
The Institute of Concrete Technology and our members and officers have had a busy summer this year, with very many events and activities to report on. On a note celebrating our Industrial commercial birth the Institute, along with the wider concrete sector, have celebrated the bicentenary of Joseph Aspdins patent for cement with conferences, webinars and publications. Vice President John Reddy hosted the ICTs session of the 24 Hours of Concrete Knowledge with presenters Dr Nina Cardinal and Dr Aneeta Joseph, and ICT members were involved in organising and contributing to events on Low-Carbon cement at University College London and on Innovations in Binder Technology at Heriot Watt University.
Highlights also include the Institute purchasing the TALENT learning materials for stages 2 and 3 Concrete Technology, and the signing of an agreement with Heriot Watt University to explore development of courses in Advanced Concrete Technology and we are discussing course provision with potential providers in India, Malaysia and the Middle East. Our Student and Young Professional network, SyPro, have been busy organising events including an upcoming Lets talk Concrete over Ping-Pong social in September.
There has been so much happening that we cannot cram it all into a single blog - Find out more by following us on LinkedIn, or ask about our latest newsletter - contact our Executive Officer at ExecutiveOfficer@theict.org.uk
