Interested in taking the CMIT Exam?

The CMIT stands for Construction Manager in Training and is one of the only professional certifications specifically within the field of construction management. Much like how the FE leads to becoming a PE, the CMIT leads to becoming a CCM (Certified Construction Manager). This certification continues to grow in popularity within the industry and is a great opportunity for you to prove to future employers that you are committed to having a successful career within the field of construction management.
For more information on the logistics of achieving your CMIT certification, see the attached document.
