Graduate training program-intensive GNSS, Setting out and site surveying course

 

Surveying is an exciting, rewarding, and secure profession, there is a great demand for competent engineers and surveyors. This course is your introduction to the world of engineering and surveying and prepares you to work as an engineer or surveyor.

 

Graduate employment market:

 

It has always been tough for graduates, we know it because we have gone through the same process many years ago ourselves. We know the difficulties of a securing employment for a graduate.

 

Employers pay rates of £350 to £400 a day to an agency for a competent engineer and rightly expect value for money.

 

Although recruiment agencies advertise for graduates, they are very reluctant to employ one who graduated a few years ago and has little or no ability to use Total Stations and other surveying instruments. It is specially worse for overseas graduates.

 

At the interview they may ask 'if we give you this drawing and a Total Station can you set out this wall or a column right now?'

 

If your answer is that I haven't used a Total Station for over 3 years, they will say thanks we will let you know and soon a regret letter will arrive. 

 

The chances are that if you studied surveying at university it would have been many years ago and you have forgotten most if not all what you learnt. Universities don't do justice to their students, most of them have too many learners in the class and too few instruments for you to practice. Teachers are not practicing engineers and are out of date with what goes on site.

 

Site Engineering Recruitement graduate training program offers intensive training in the use of Total Stations and GNSS for 5 consecutive days to help you through the interview process with confidence. We can get you an up-to-date unit certificate in setting out and GNSS, although this is not a full qualification, it will give the employer a confidence that you are competent with the use of surveying instruments.

 

Please note that this is not a remote or online course but face to face being taught with experience engineers with over 70 years of experience between them.
