The Construction Industry Development Council (CIDC), has been set up jointly by the Government of India and the Indian construction industry. We are an umbrella organization for the construction industry in India and have a national presence with branches across the country. We undertake a wide range of activities to benefit the construction industry. This includes conducting training at various levels, organizing workshops and conferences, publishing journals and newsletters, welfare programmes for construction workers, grading, placement and so on. The contribution of CIDC to the country's growth has been recognized by various leaders and we are the recipients of the prestigious Golden Peacock National Training Award 2008. We are working towards making the Indian construction industry more professional and competitive. We also have commitment to the larger interests of society and the nation.
