The Nigerian Institute of Building is the professional body for Builders and those who are about to be engaged in the Building Profession. 

The Institute has its origin in a parent body called the Builders’ Society, which was formed in 1834 by a number of prominent Builders in London. 

This body was renamed the Institute of Builders in 1884. Then in 1965, the name was changed to Instutue of Building (IOB). As the organisation gained royal charter, it was renamed “The Chartered Institute of Building” (CIOB) in 1980.
