This month we welcomed a new cohort of students embarking on The Survey Association’s Surveying Course and registrations are now open for Course 71, beginning in July…
Why enrol on our course?
Our course has an excellent reputation, with many former graduates excelling in their field. It provides a thorough grounding in theory and foundational surveying principles up to the latest advanced techniques.
Investing in effective staff training bridges skills gaps and ensures a motivated workforce. Our comprehensive modules will help your team members work more confidently and efficiently.
Delegates attend 6 x 2-week blocks spread over 18 months, receiving expert tuition from seasoned professional surveyors and plenty of hands-on experience. The course is also a great opportunity for delegates to connect with fellow junior surveyors and build a supportive professional network.
Forward-Looking and Future-Proof
To ensure the course keeps pace with advancing technology, new modules on terrestrial laser scanning have been introduced. This segment is delivered by our Senior Tutor, Adam Ball, who specialises in the Leica practical workflow, alongside Melvin Penwill from KOREC, who provides the Trimble practical workflow element.
Although Leica and Trimble workflows and software are used within the training, the laser scanning content is delivered using a manufacturer-neutral approach wherever possible. This ensures that the fundamental principles of laser scanning are taught in a way that is relevant regardless of the specific technology or brand being used.
In addition, updated Underground Utility Mapping material aligned with the PAS 128:2022 specification has been incorporated. These enhancements ensure the TSA Surveying Course continues to evolve, reflecting the latest surveying technologies, industry standards, and best-practice guidance.
ProQual Level 3 Diploma in Engineering Surveying
The TSA Surveying Course is run alongside the Proqual Level 3 Diploma, providing successful candidates with a qualification and standard recognised by Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS).
Successfully completing all 6 TSA Surveying Course blocks fulfils the requirement for those wishing to upgrade from Student to Technical membership of CICES. It also meets the RICS eligibility requirements to apply for Associate Membership assessment – alongside evidence of 2 years’ experience.
How can I get on the next course?
Course 71 commences this July and bookings are now being taken. Most delegates who come to us are sponsored by their employers, but we do accept self-funders. If you, or someone you know, are curious about pursuing a career in land surveying and are unsure of next steps, then do get in touch with our friendly team.
