Founded in 1999, the Institution of Railway Operators was created to work at the heart of the rail operations community. CIRO are the only professional institution whose focus and specialism are railway operations.
In 2020, the Institution was recognised by Her Majesty the Queen by the granting of a Royal Charter for its work within the industry. It then became the Chartered Institution of Railway Operators (CIRO).
CIRO offers a combination of learning from our Introduction to Rail course to a Degree in Railway Operations Managements, events, CPD courses, and networking opportunities for current and aspiring rail employees. CIRO also offers a unique Mentoring Scheme where the expertise of industry leaders is shared to support our members. This helps in delivering the very best developmental opportunities and industry-recognised qualifications for the next generation of the rail industry.
