Hmm, interesting.?ÿ So I had a poll attached to this which didn't show up:

  • CST Level 1/2
  • CST Level 3/4
  • 2 year Degree in Surveying?ÿ / Geomatics
  • 4 year Degree in Surveying / Geomatics
  • LSIT
  • FAA Part 107
  • GIS Cert
  • Field Experience
  • Office Experience

Any other ones below the PLS Level that I'm missing?

FWIW: I'm currently holding a 2 year degree with a CST 1 and FAA Part 107

You cannot be hired into our surveyor series without an LSIT (EIT acceptable) or 4-year degree from an ABET accredited surveying/geomatics program. We are a large government agency and have almost 300 licensed staff (PLS) and about the same number of LSITs.?ÿ
