WSLS is excited to offer Professional Development Hours (PDH’s) for the 2010 Annual Institute. As you already know, in October of 2009 the Land Surveyors Section of the Registration and Licensing Board adopted Chapter A – E 10, Continuing Education For Land Surveyors. Starting in February 2010, you can begin earning PDH’s. You will need to complete 20 PDH’s by February 1, 2012. Chapter A-E 10.03 (1) (b) states:
(b) During each biennial registration period, the registrant shall complete a minimum of two professional development hours of the total number required in each of the following categories:
- Programs, courses or activities in the area of Wisconsin statutes and rules that regulate professional land surveyors and surveys.
- Programs, courses or activities in the area of professional conduct and ethics.
- Programs, courses or activities in the area of land surveying or related sciences.
We have indicated in each session how many PDH’s and what categories a session will likely qualify.
