Survey Law 1 Course
The Survey Law 1 course is being offered by CBEPS and AOLS through Four Point Learning (4pointlearning.ca) starting September 6, 2023.
Survey Law 1 provides a foundation for professional surveyors to integrate legal principles, legislation and regulations within the overall framework of property boundary surveys. The course will be taught online Wednesday evenings by Izaak de Rijcke. These "live" lectures are recorded for later viewing, as is a weekly pre-recorded lecture. The course schedule and syllabus are available here: 4pointlearning.ca/4PL/SLaw1_Syllabus.pdf.
Registration is via a form on the AOLS site. The course fee is $750.00 plus HST, payable to AOLS. This fee cannot be treated as tuition under the Income Tax Act and is not eligible for a refund after the course has started. Registering by early August will allow enough time to receive the textbook, Principles of Boundary Law in Canada (4pointlearning.ca/4PL/Principles_Boundary_Law.pdf) and to get familiar with underlying concepts and overall approach.
