RIBA Mentoring
Taking time out and giving back to the industry and nurturing the next generation of Architects and Technologists is a very rewarding part of our role. As active members of the RIBA Mentoring Scheme, we are delighted to have spent several months regularly engaging with undergraduate and post graduate students from both the University of Brighton and University of Portsmouth.
We’ve managed to give very tangible and hands on experience, taking students to visit two of our recently completed projects (Portsmouth Audi Aftersales/Showroom) and also a live construction sites (INEOS Portsmouth and Pelham Street Brighton). The students were able to better understand the latter stages of the design process, the challenges and realities that the construction phase can bring, and how collaborating successfully with other consultants and the contractor will help deliver quality for our clients.
It is also an important time of year for younger students who are actively considering their future career paths. We’ve been attending a number of career fairs and offering work experience places to share impartial guidance and knowledge to an array of secondary school and further education students.
It’s always refreshing to see the exceptional talent, enthusiasm and potential that exists – our future is in safe hands! We wish all students the very best of luck in their upcoming exams and deadlines.
