Professional Training Agreements

How to register a Professional Training Agreement

A person wishing to complete a PTA needs to be a financial Candidate Surveyor and have completed a four year degree. To become a Candidate Surveyor, see Pathway to Registration.

  • A Candidate Surveyor needs to contact the Board of Surveying and Spatial Information to obtain the PTA Guidelines and Agreement.
  • Three copies (an original plus two copies) of the completed PTA are to be lodged with the Board accompanied by a $60 Lodgment of PTA Fee.
  • The PTA agreement must be included in the next Board meeting agenda for approval.
  • If the PTA agreement is found to be unsatisfactory or incomplete, the application will be returned and a new Agreement will need to be lodged accompanied by $30 Re-Lodgment Fee.
  • If the PTA agreement is approved the Candidate Surveyor will be informed in writing and are able to start their agreement.

A Candidate Surveyor who has entered into a PTA and, due to certain circumstances requires a variation to the agreement, may request a review of the training agreement structure. An Agreement may only be altered in relation to a change in how a core module is to be undertaken or a change in Supervising Surveyor. A change to a PTA Agreement will incur a $30 Variation Fee.
