ACBEE

This website provides a focal point for those interested in Accelerating Change in Built Environment Education (ACBEE). Here you will find information on the ACBEE programme and a range of case studies of high quality from which you can learn how industry and education are collaborating to deliver the type of advanced higher education courses that we need for the future.

John Hobson

Chairman of ACBEE, Former Director of the DTI Construction Directorate

I have been much encouraged by the support we have received from industry and academe. There is widespread understanding that good communication between these communities, and with professional institutions, is crucial to the future.  We all seek an efficient, client-friendly UK construction sector that embraces Egan thinking, partnership and teamwork.”

 

ACBEE was established to encourage the built environment industry, universities and professional bodies to work together to improve dialogue and provide more relevant training and education for the future.

ACBEE Phase 3 Report now available

ACBEE seeks to achieve this by:

  • Promoting successful case studies of high quality that align with key industry themes

  • Developing methods of measuring the success of these

  • Encouraging the development of courses that demonstrate improved industry performance

A prospectus has been prepared for those requiring further detail of the current programme or who wish to participate by encouraging or providing additional case studies of excellence.

The ACBEE programme forms part of the accelerating change agenda endorsed by the Strategic Forum. The ACBEE steering group includes representatives of Construction Skills, Construction Industry Council, Constructing Excellence in the Built Environment, Engineering Subject Centre and CEBE (Centre for Education in the Built Environment).

The ACBEE programme has been funded by the Sector Skills Council for Construction – ConstructionSkills.
