Survey School
The PLSO Cleveland Chapter began its survey
school over thirty years ago. Back then, the course lasted two years
and was designed to assist in preparation for the Professional Examination.
In subsequent years the school included construction-surveying classes
in its cirriculum. When NSPS began the Certified Survey Technician program,
the classes changed again to prepare
students for the Level One and Two Exams.
The Survey School has changed
formats again to meet the needs of current day surveying.
