The Institute of Concrete Technology
Founded in 1972, The Institute of Concrete Technology (ICT)’s mission is to preserve and promote concrete technology as a
recognised engineering discipline and consolidate the professional status of practising concrete technologists. It is the concrete sector’s professional development body, operating internationally, with nearly 500 members in more than 30 countries worldwide. It is an awarding body for qualifications in concrete technology and a facilitator of continuing professional development (CPD) and networking opportunities.
Sultanate of Oman
Oman, a nation on the Arabian Peninsula, has terrain encompassing desert, riverbed oases and long coastlines on the Arabian Sea, the Sea of Oman and the Arabian Gulf. Wahiba Sands is a region of dunes inhabited by Bedouins.
