About the Training Agreement
The Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) approves Training Agreements to enable companies to develop their trainees in a structured way as they progress towards a professional qualification. The Training Agreement ensures that a broad range of experience is covered and that it is recorded and assessed at various stages.
Sessions begin at 9:00 and finish at 17:00. Morning and afternoon coffee breaks and lunch are included in the programme. All timings except the start time are approximate and may be adjusted to suit natural breaks in the sessions.

- Session 2 - Development (quarterly) Reports: how to produce them in a timely manner, content, appendices.
