First off, I appreciate Surveyconnect allowing me to post this on the forum!
Myself and a group of students from Renton Tech. College created a new forum in hopes of creating more mentoring opportunities. It is also used to promote LSAW functions and the Young Surveyors Network (FIG.
It is a brand new forum so there is not too much movement on their yet bet we hope that more people get involved so us young surveyors (Both in age and professional age!)can have another learning opportunity.
The site is http://youngsurveyorswa.boards.net/ and I invite you all to please join and say hello and offer your experiences.
Thank you so much for reading this!

Welcome
Keep lookin back in here, cause the lights are always on and somebody is usually nearby...
Hmm...there are young surveyors? The youngest surveyor in my crew is 50. Our newest hire, who is not licensed yet is 63. I haven't seen a young surveyor in a long time. Last one I remember is old now.

I'm 34 and licensed in three states, not sure I still qualify as young though.

Yes, we are ALL still young, no matter how old we may feel.
I encourage others here to go check out their site for which Sebastian has provided a link. They could probably use a few mentors chipping in over there from time to time.

We are all young.

They way I figure it is if you are still learning, you are still young...
36 and licensed in 3 states. Work with a 27 and licensed in 3 states, 45 and LSIT, 28 and going for license and 2 other 20 somethings in school. Wish i had one more old guy to go to for experience though.
I'll check out the forums posted! If I can confuse and befuddle... I mean, provide some positive feedback to an up and coming surveyor, I'd happily do that.

That goes double for me.

Yep. technically anyone under 35 is considered a "young surveyor" by NSPS standards. Same thing for "Young Engineers" according to NSPE and ASCE.

Myself didn't see anything wrong with his grammar.
Is there some problem with Gmail on that site? When I attempt registration it says my email is not valid....

Now that's funny. Glad I'm not the only one.
Good luck to those guys, though.

I believe I remember reading somewhere on this site: Multiple logins will not be allowed.
Were you trying to create more than 1 registration?
I didn't have a problem with gmail.
