MENTORING MONDAYS — THIS MONDAY!
Also, scroll to the bottom to see about Wisdom Wednesdays!
If you perform construction staking or construction surveying, you are going to want to hear this one.
Join us Monday, August 31 at 4:00 PM Pacific for a special Mentoring Mondays presentation with Dr. Charles A. “Tony” Nettleman, III, PSM, Esq.
Tony is going to spend about 75 minutes breaking down:
THE TOP FIVE REASONS LAND SURVEYORS ARE SUED DURING NEW CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS
We’ll talk about the mistakes and problems that can turn into very expensive claims — including:
• Boundary & control errors
• Using the wrong version of construction documents
• Datum, projection & localization mistakes
• Contract requirements becoming your standard of care
• Documentation, communication & QA/QC failures
This isn’t about being afraid of construction staking. It’s about understanding where the risk actually comes from and what we can do differently to protect ourselves, our companies, and our clients. Tony’s course material specifically emphasizes practical systems and defensible documentation that can help prevent claims before they happen.
As always, Mentoring Mondays is open to EVERYONE in the land surveying profession — students, field crews, technicians, project managers, professional land surveyors, business owners and anyone wanting to learn.
