Reward The good news is that surveying is generally a well paid profession. Chartered Surveyors can command high salaries once they are fully qualified, and internationally, surveyors are among some of the highest paid graduates – beyond that, the sky is the limit. Networking If you consider yourself to be a gregarious ‘people person’ the surveying profession could be absolutely perfect for you. You will meet a wide range of people from building contractors and architects; to managing directors and chairmen of large corporations and once you’ve created your own network of contacts in powerful positions, the world will become your proverbial oyster. Lifestyle & travel Working hours aren’t usually too onerous in the surveying profession either – well unless you want to work long hours that is – which makes surveying the envy of many other professions such as law and accountancy. Another attraction is that surveyors are not chained to their desks – although you are likely to be office based you will spend a great deal of time out and about, meeting people and generally making your mark on the world. Many surveyors travel extensively – both locally and internationally. What does it mean to be chartered? Employers and their clients around the world recognise the RICS brand as the mark of quality and professionalism within the property and surveying professions. For the public, RICS represents integrity and trust as members must meet the rigorous educational and practice standards required by the market place. Because of this, global recognition of chartered status is, for individuals, the gateway to numerous career opportunities and increased earning potential. Surveying is a diverse and exciting career choice that can give you the opportunity to travel the world and meet all kinds of people. If you think of the physical assets that cover the earth – buildings, trees, reefs, airports, antiques, festivals, hotels, rainforests, ports and harbours, to name a few – surveyors are there shaping the world that we live in, making their mark. This guide is designed to help you to find out more about the surveying profession, the work that surveyors do and why surveying could be the career for you. 02 RICS Course Listings – February 2012 RICS Course Listings – February 2012 03 WHY BECOME A SURVEYOR? “I joined Cushman & Wakefield’s Paris office in September 2007 after graduating and was then recruited as a bilingual member of their valuation team on a full-time basis. What was the content of the course? The MSc Real Estate Management provides a further educational opportunity for graduates wishing to increase their knowledge of the property industry and enter the property profession. The degree provides a theoretical framework to develop your knowledge with practical real life examples and case studies. How has the course helped you in your career? The course gave me a solid base in which to start working in the real estate industry and eventually become chartered. I now work for the valuation team and the MSc taught me core valuation principles enabling me to develop extensive valuation skills acting for a variety of national and international property investors, banks and corporate clients. What do you enjoy most about your career in property and surveying? Over the last three years at Cushman I have had the benefit of travelling across most of France visiting the assets that we have to value. I have also got to know a number of clients from differing backgrounds and have the benefit of working with a wide range of people and businesses.” IN MY EXPERIENCE Name: James Lombard Position: Valuation Surveyor Degree: MSc in Real Estate Management at Oxford Brookes University Employer: Cushman and Wakefield Undergraduate and postgraduate courses Getting an RICS accredited degree is the most accepted way of becoming a Chartered Surveyor, although many people start off with a related degree – such as geography – before taking an RICS accredited postgraduate degree. Studying at a more technical, vocational level is also an option with established progression to Chartered Surveyor status available. Our course search facility will help you to find the right option for you. Full-time or part-time study? Many students study part-time or by distance learning whilst working for a surveying firm, others prefer to do all of their studying up front, but part- time study as part of a job may mean it takes longer to become fully qualified – but you have the choice! Developing your skills As with many professions the need to study doesn’t end when you leave university. Once you have got your degree or diploma and become employed as a graduate surveyor you need to gain your professional qualification – the Assessment of Professional Competence (APC). So what is the Assessment of Professional Competence? The APC is the practical training and experience which, when combined with academic qualifications, leads to RICS membership. The objective of the APC is to ensure you are competent to practise as a Chartered Surveyor. The APC normally consists of: • a period of structured training • a final assessment interview. The APC structured training will normally continue for a minimum of 24 months, during which you must complete a minimum of 400 days’ relevant practical experience. This may take longer, depending on your supervisor’s and counsellor’s assessment of your progress. For more details of RICS routes to membership, please refer to the following link: www.rics.org/joinrics With hundreds of courses available at universities around the world it has never been easier to find the right course to help you qualify as a surveyor. Our course search website is designed to help you to pinpoint the right career path and course to suit your specific needs. 04 RICS Course Listings – February 2012 RICS Course Listings – February 2012 05 HOW TO BECOME A SURVEYOR? PROFILE 02 Jimmy worked for DTZ Holdings Limited prior to joining Ernst & Young. He has more than 5 years of professional experience in property valuation and consultancy in the Asia Pacific area. Jimmy specialises in the valuation of mortgage loans, sale and purchase, joint venture, merger & acquisition, initial public offering and non-performing loans. “During my early years at University, my tutors and professors had frequently invited different professionals from different areas of the property market to our classes. It was through this that I became familiar with the concept of RICS and I was impressed with their professionalism and broad industry knowledge. As a newcomer to the market, I was eager to gain recognition from the market. A lot of suggestions and ideas were offered by my colleagues and clients, the majority of whom were RICS professional members. Becoming one of them was the natural step for me to take in order to gain the reputation and recognition I wanted from the local property market. After finishing the 2 year APC training program, I successfully passed my final interview and became a Chartered Surveyor in 2009. Professional membership provides me with a lot of useful and valuable sources and networks throughout my daily work and I am really proud of being a member of RICS.” IN MY EXPERIENCE Name: Jimmy Lu Position: Senior Associate Degree: Bachelor of Property, University of Auckland Employer: Ernst & Young 06 RICS Course Listings – February 2012 RICS Course Listings – February 2012 07 SUMMARY OF THE SPECIALISMS Building Surveying From supervising multi-milion pound office blocks, to restoring historic buildings, right through to home extensions – Chartered Building Surveyors use their expertise to provide advice on property and construction projects: residential, commercial, industrial, leisure, agricultural and retail. Building Control Essential in relation to the design, use and costing of buildings, this specialism encompasses all aspects of building regulations, health and safety, disabled access, environment issues, licensing, energy efficiency and sound and fire insulation. Building control is a common global feature – there are codes throughout the world to which buildings must be constructed. Project Management Project Management Surveyors are responsible for coordinating the entire development process to maximise efficiency, economy, communication and successful completion of each specific project. The work involves technical competence, leadership skills, human resources and risk management. Quantity Surveying From house building to process engineering on oil rigs, Construction Surveyors need to have strong financial, analytical, interpretative and teamwork skills. Clients rely on their judgement to ensure the smooth running of the project. They are involved in infrastructure work such as building motorways and bridges. Environment As specialists in all aspects of the management, monitoring and assessment of buildings, land and construction, these surveyors work in areas such as environmental management and auditing, land use and development, risk management, contaminated land, urban regeneration and town planning. Minerals & Waste Management Mineral Surveyors need a practical knowledge of mining, quarrying, surveying, geology, economics, mining law and relevant legislation. Waste management, including disposal and recycling, is a growing and highly emotive sector that requires good communication skills. Geomatics Analysing information about the land and the sea bed, these surveyors work with geographic information systems, land and hydrographic surveying, mapping and positioning, global and local navigation systems, engineering survey, land registration, boundary identification, land law, cartography, ocean bed and resource surveys. Planning & Development Assessing the physical and social impact of built environment takes into account design, build quality, IT, climate, transport, and sources of renewable energy. These surveyors promote efficient land management. Rural With expertise in consultancy and planning, real estate, environmental management, rental and lease reviews, auctioning and valuation, surveyors in this area give advice to farmers and landowners on unlocking the value of their assets, selling livestock, diversification, change of land use and rural management. Commercial Property Surveyors in this sector are involved in the purchase, sale, management and leasing of business premises, negotiations between landlords and tenants, strategic management of corporate property portfolios as well as developing telecoms networks’ infrastructure and the valuation of land and buildings. Facilities Management The total management of the services that support a business including relocation, health and safety, outsourcing, procurement, property management and utilities and services, is incorporated in this specialism, as well as strategic planning and advice. Arts & Antiques Through the ages, artists and craftsmen have created fabulous objects that reveal the history and fashion of every continent. Chartered Arts & Antiques Surveyors are privileged to work with valuable and curious artefacts, advising the owners on their value, care, sale and acquisition – privately or by auction. Dispute Resolution The scope of these services include rent reviews, lease renewals, building contracts, boundary disputes, valuation, planning disputes and professional negligence, as well as advising on conflict avoidance and acting as arbitrators, adjudicators, mediators and experts. Machinery & Business Assets These surveyors advise on the valuation and sale of a firm’s machinery, equipment and business assets – from oil refineries to websites – which is important for insurance, accounting, insolvency, compulsory purchase, taxation and market value purposes. Management Consultancy In providing impartial advice, a management consultant could be involved with developing a real estate acquisition plan, a local authority leisure strategy or a corporate recovery programme, handling insolvency or helping a manufacturer overcome production problems. Residential Property The specialism with the highest public profile, it can involve acting as an agent, broker or auctioneer in a sale, the management, valuation and surveying of public or private property and overseeing the contractual relationship between landlords and tenants, as well as giving advice on investment and development. Valuation Property, land and business assets valuation is a core skill that plays a vital role in bank lending, accounting, investment, taxation, and many other activities. Valuation Surveyors need to take into account how social, economic and legal factors, nature and the physical attributes of the land or buildings may affect their value.

With land and property projects based all over the world, courses may include a wide variety of field trips, visits to urban regeneration projects, work on environmental sustainability schemes, to name a few, but all activities provide an insight into the world of surveying. A significant number of graduates on RICS accredited courses find positions with major surveying companies and ‘Applications from candidates with an RICS accredited degree are welcome’ is a common request in recruitment advertisements placed by these firms. But the main benefit for you of studying an RICS accredited degree is that you're more likely to be hired by these RICS member firms who select graduates on courses that match their own business activity. Money matters Once qualified you can expect to increase your earning potential which is a major advantage of gaining chartered status. According to the 2011 Macdonald and Company Salary Survey the average salary of an RICS trainee is £32,734, which rises to £49,835 once you qualify as a full RICS member. Choosing well The diversity of the surveying profession is reflected in the vast range of accredited courses on offer at universities across the globe, for instance: • MSc in Construction Law and Dispute Resolution at Hong Kong Polytechnic University • BSc Hons Quantity Surveying at Glasgow Caledonian University • Master of Engineering (Geomatics) at the University of Melbourne • MSc Project Management at the University of Cape Town • BSc Hons Building Surveying at Anglia Ruskin University • MPhil Environmental Policy at the University of Cambridge • MS Construction Management at New York University • Batchelor of Architectural Technology and Construction at Copenhagen School of Design and Technology • MBA International Real Estate at Hochschule Biberach, Germany. But how do you make the right choice? Often the degree course title hides the real scope of subjects covered so it’s always worth looking more closely at what’s included. Most importantly, each accredited degree leads to RICS membership and thereafter access to one or more of the RICS “Professional Groups.” The 17 professional groups embrace the wide range of specialisms covered by Chartered Surveyors, are international in their outlook and provide information and support to working surveyors everywhere. Professional groups support members by: • Providing choice for must-have professional, technical and decision support information, interpretation and application, plus post qualification education and standards • Exploring training and development opportunities • Building and maintaining relationships with other organisations and client groups • Representing the expertise of the profession in the implementation of legislation, while working with our Public Affairs function to influence policy development • Researching and promoting new and emerging areas of practice • Developing APC and other professional competencies • Providing quality control over use of specialist chartered designations. Masters degrees Graduates who have achieved a degree and are moving into further study, or members currently in work who are re-engaging with academia, have a vast selection of postgraduate qualifications to choose from. RICS also allows those students to start their APC – Assessment of Professional Competence structured training while undertaking part-time or distance learning study. In recent years, the number of graduates and professionals who have started RICS accredited masters courses has increased dramatically, even overtaking the number enrolling on undergraduate courses. This can be illustrated by data collected from our UK partner universities for the 2010/11 academic year – with over 4400 undertaking postgraduate degrees and over 3400 students enrolled on RICS accredited undergraduate courses. Getting an RICS accredited degree is the first step on the road to becoming a Chartered Surveyor. The major employers have always sought candidates with an appetite for the profession – and choosing an RICS accredited degree demonstrates your commitment to making it your career. Quantifiable and measurable standards to meet these principles have been developed in each country that has adopted the university partnerships model. In other parts of the world, a more traditional, audit based approach to individual course accreditation continues. 10 RICS Course Listings – February 2012 RICS Course Listings – February 2011 12 PROFILE 03 RICS has devolved much of what was previously controlled centrally to a series of individual partnerships with selected universities meeting certain rigorous selection criteria. In addition, individual courses are accredited following an equally rigorous process based on five quality principles: • Student selection • Research and innovation • Teaching quality • Curriculum • Graduate output. In many parts of the world RICS has partnerships with a selection of higher education institutions that deliver RICS accredited courses. This represents the coming together of a university and RICS to establish common goals and then to work together to achieve those goals. ACCREDITATION OF COURSES IN MY EXPERIENCE “ During my four-year business school course in Paris (EDC Paris) I had the chance to do several work placements, during which I discovered my interest in the property profession. Following my degree I decided to take a Masters specialising in Real Estate. As I wanted to broaden my international experience, I chose to study in England, enrolling at Oxford Brookes University. Oxford Brookes was recommended as one of the best universities for studying real estate in the UK, was RICS accredited, and offered an international course. It was a one-year full time course which covered different aspects of property all over the world and due to the different nationalities of the students we had the chance to share our experiences of our home countries. In addition, we had the chance to have professional lecturers from major British companies, who provided us with their knowledge of the property market in their specific field. After passing my MSc, I was hired by Jones Lang LaSalle, one of the leading commercial real estate advisors in the world. I started my career as an analyst in the French Capital Market department and after two and a half years I decided to join the Valuation department, where I am currently working for national and international clients. While studying for the APC I benefited from a structured and supportive support network at Jones Lang LaSalle, and thanks to their knowledge and valuable advice I successfully passed the final interview and I am proud to have achieved RICS status this year.” Name: Isabelle Gensbittel Position: Valuer Degree: MSc International Real Estate, Oxford Brookes University, Oxford Employer: Jones Lang LaSalle, Paris, France 12 RICS Course Listings – February 2012 Search for courses now rics.org/courses RICS matrics also organise CPD (Continuing Professional Development) events in your local region – these events will enhance your technical knowledge and skills – www.rics.org/matrics RICS Recruit is the official recruitment website of RICS containing hundreds of jobs across all sectors of surveying.
