The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) provides China with new historical opportunities for its opening-up process. Construction management professionals, who are desperately needed in the practices of BRI, should comprehensively raise their level of knowledge and capability, expand global horizon, and establish stronger awareness of international cooperation and communication. Based on the issues concerning infrastructure construction incorporated in BRI, as well as a profound analysis of the connotation and boundary of the construction management discipline, this paper extracted five new features of construction management professionals in compliance with BRI, which includes three knowledge skills and two ideological concepts. Then, the paper proposed new measures for the present and future education of construction management professionals. Its core lies in the full integration of resources and advantages among the country's various fields and social levels, as well as the realization of a collaborative training mechanism of construction management professionals within the entire society.
