Membership of CECA North East has two defined routes; Full and Associate.
Full members are deemed to be civil engineering contractors or have within their business profile an element of civil engineering activities as set out in the full member application form. Full membership provides access to the complete range of products, services and support available from CECA. Full CECA North East members where their work is geographically spread can also attribute a proportion of the subscription to an additional region/s so that they are able to access the local services of that region.
Associate membership application is open to companies who work in association or on the peripheries of civil engineering contracting and wish to contribute to the industry and exchange mutual understanding, knowledge and expertise. We welcome applications from well-intended companies however, the selection process is rigorous and associate members do not have similar access to services or rights as full members as explained below.
