Ramboll is the first CIBSE training and development provider in the Middle East and Asia
Global architecture, engineering and consultancy company Ramboll has been approved by the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) as a Training & Development (T&D) provider for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and India – the first consultancy firm in the Middle East and Asia to achieve this.

CIBSE T&D Scheme is an approved in-company training program that develops engineers’ skills and competence towards achieving Engineering Council registration and corporate membership of CIBSE.
Developing engineers registered on an approved T&D program are paired with an experienced mentor, who provides guidance and acts as a sounding board as they develop their competence for Engineering Council registration.
Head of MEP for Ramboll in the Middle East Imran Shaikh said he was delighted that Ramboll’s expertise in building services engineering in these regions had been recognised by CIBSE as reaching an exceptional standard to be regarded as a training provider for the next generation of building services engineers.
“T&D is a way for trainee engineers to gain real-world experience and learning opportunities right from the start of their careers. Ramboll invests in training and development because it is central to the growth of our industry and the success of our people and projects,” Mr Shaikh said.
“Ramboll is looking forward to partnering with CIBSE for the long-term growth of the building services engineering industry.”
To become a certified CIBSE T&D provider, a company must meet strict assessment criteria, including providing details of the training, ensuring that staff are qualified and demonstrating an ability to provide ongoing mentoring.
The CIBSE T&D Committee welcomed Ramboll’s UAE and India businesses to the T&D Scheme.
“Ramboll has developed a well-supported T&D scheme and CIBSE congratulates Ramboll on the approval of the scheme. CIBSE looks forward to seeing the next cohort of well-trained apprentices,” a representative for the T&D Committee said.
CIBSE T&D accreditation will be assessed every three years with Ramboll’s initial accreditation running to 2027.
