Applications open for non-members for the CABE Building Inspector Competence Scheme

Chartered Association of Building Engineers (CABE) is delighted to announce that the CABE Building Inspector Competence Assessment Scheme (CBICAS) is now open to non-members, as of 1 November 2023.

The CBICAS is approved by the Building Safety Regulator (BSR) to provide individuals with evidence of their competence, allowing Building Control professionals to register as a Building Inspector as required under the Building Safety Act (2022).

The scheme follows three key stages;

Stage 1 – application and career portfolio submission

Stage 2 – submission of a technical report and competence statements; and

Stage 3 – a two-part technical report and professional review interview

CBICAS is also an Engineering Council approved standard, and successful assessment at Class 2, 3 or 4 will entitle you to register with Engineering Council as an Incorporated Engineer (IEng).
