While we have been fortunate not to have been affected like the food service industry, it’s become obvious that we are facing the workforce shortage that we’ve all worried about. The PLSO Board has been discussing ways to better promote the profession at the high school level, participating in an allied partnership task force, and meeting with CTE high school teachers. It is more important than ever to fund projects that focus on this issue. The world needs surveyors. So, let’s all get back together and work towards making more of them. x Attain CEUs from land surveying and business experts like John Stahl, David Doyle and local professionals on Writing a Good Narrative, Civil 3D, Cyber Liability & Crime, UAV, Math for Surveyors and more!
