I read with sympathy Gordon Henderson's letter ‘CIOB fails members in Scotland'.

Gordon is well known to Glasgow Caledonian University, as a past graduate he has always

been a fine ambassador for our programmes and our industry.

Gordon's view is one I have heard repeated by many local authority part-time students. Others

in a similar position to Gordon should attend the CIOB's Scottish AGM on 24 May at the university.

I wish to assure Gordon, and others like him, that when our School of the Built and Natural Environment recruits academic staff to a range of disciplines, the MCIOB accolade is essentially a ‘position specification' requirement and is viewed as a gold standard badge of professionalism. So don't leave the Institute - there are employers who value your chartered builder achievement.

I wish Gordon, and others like him, well in their campaign.

Iain Cameron FCIOB, Glasgow Caledonian University
