Sound Familiar?

Every year, it's the same routine. You need Continuing Education credits to keep your license active. But getting them usually means "getting them out of the way". Sitting through recycled regulations you already know, and dropping hundreds on hotel rooms and registration fees.

Most CE is designed around an instructor's schedule. Survey Life CE is designed around yours — immersive narrative audio that you can actually absorb while driving a county road or waiting on a crew.

Finally, Continuing Education That Fits Your Life

Survey Life CE - An Exciting and New, Immersive Narrative Style Format. Lessons You Will Want to Hear. Built for you and your busy schedule.

Real-World Investigation, Delivered.

Most continuing education talks at you. We designed ours to put you at the fence line, in the courthouse, on the witness stand, and in the middle of the decision that determines whether a surveyor keeps his license — or loses it. You won’t just hear what the rule says. You’ll hear the phone call from the client asking you to “just move the line a little.” You’ll sit in the courtroom while the judge explains why the surveyor was wrong. You’ll walk the boundary where the monument doesn’t fit the deed and the deed doesn’t fit the occupation.

Just real-world surveying experiences that sharpen your judgment. If all we do is give you information, we haven’t done our job. Our job is to make you think, make you wrestle with the decision, and make you a better surveyor when you walk back into the field on Monday morning.

No scheduling. No travel. No sitting in a crowded room, wishing you were somewhere else.
