For BOSSI Candidates seeking registration and preparing to sit for the BOSSI Town Planning Examination.
Consulting Surveyors NSW has been tasked by the Board of Surveying and Spatial Information (BOSSI) to prepare graduates for the registration process. In New South Wales, to become a registered surveyor, you will firstly need to have gained a recognised qualification or equivalent and a Certificate of Competency. The current list of recognised qualifications can be found on the recognised qualifications page of the BOSSI website. If you have gained a qualification that is not on this list, it will need to be assessed as an equivalent to a recognised qualification. Further information on qualifications gained outside of Australia and New Zealand can be found on the overseas assessment.
After obtaining your degree, you will undertake prescribed training and work experience under the supervision of a registered surveyor and the undertaking of prescribed examinations conducted by the Board. On successful completion of the examinations, a candidate is then accredited by BOSSI as being proficient in the practice of surveying and is entitled to become registered as a land or mining surveyor, under the register held by the Surveyor-General.
For full details on BOSSI requirements for Candidates, please visit the BOSSI Website at www.bossi.nsw.gov.au.
