Dr Henry Abanda (Senior Lecturer in Construction IT at Oxford Brookes) mentored a group of students from the School of the Built Environment at Oxford Brookes for the first ever WorldSkills UK Building Information Management (BIM) - Regional Competition. The competition took place on the 18 June 2019 at the Autodesk University Conference (which took place in London from 17-19 June) where the team from Oxford Brookes competed with students from South Bank and Middlesex universities. There were 10 competitors, and Oxford Brookes came second (David Blahak) and first (Barbara Adamska) both are students on the MSc Building Information Modelling and Management (BIMM).

of the quality of our BSc/MSc programmes and dedicated teaching staff in the School of the
Built Environment at Oxford Brookes University'.
