Surveying Licensure Requirements

Surveying licensure requirements typically include obtaining a relevant degree, such as a bachelor's in surveying or civil engineering, gaining practical field experience (usually through internships or work under a licensed surveyor), and passing a series of examinations that assess technical knowledge and ethics. Some jurisdictions require ongoing continuing education to maintain licensure. The goal is to ensure surveyors have the necessary education, practical skills, and professionalism to accurately map land and assist with construction, boundaries, and development projects.
