Beginners to an enhanced Engineering surveying course, plus extended qualifications

 

A training course for those changing careers to construction engineering and surveying.

 

This course is aimed at those changing careers to surveying in construction engineering. It will lead to achieving the ProQual Level 3 Diploma in Engineering Surveying qualification required to obtain a CSCS gold engineer surveyor card.

 

Did you know you don't need a degree to work as an engineer at construction sites?

 

Did you know that a university degree for setting out and site engineers is a complete waste of time and money?

 

Why go to a university and end up with debts of £60,000 +

When we can teach you all you need and a nationally and European-approved qualification for just £3995

 

Our course is designed to take you from a beginner to an enhanced level in two months, enabling you to achieve the Diploma in Engineering Surveying qualification. You will also receive one day a month of college-based training for at least four more months. 

 

Classes are offered for four Saturdays and two Sundays each month from 08.30 am to 3.00 pm, followed by further attendance if required on Saturdays from 3.00 to 6.00 pm after the initial two month course is complete.

 

Enhanced learners have extra training and lessons in additional subjects to help them achieve a more broad-based expertise in engineering and working as a site engineer or a surveyor.

 

You will learn to use surveying equipment to a high degree of fluency for surveying and setting out on construction sites and land surveying. After two months of training and qualification achievement, you will return one day a month for more hands-on training to ensure you will maintain competency in using surveying equipment. You can also attend our classes in AutoCAD every time they are offered. 

 

 

 

 

 

Course fees:

Beginner to enhanced level: £3995, plus a final fee of £100 for certification fees.

 

For the best training, learners can combine a block of two weeks and some Saturdays.

 

 

 

 

 

 

What you will be learning

 

  • Complete training on Total stations, including Robotic instruments, GNSS, Automatic, laser, and Digital levels.
  • Full training on surveying and setting out methods and traversing, understanding local and global coordinate systems, converting from one system to another, and creating your own local coordinate systems when none exist.
  • Establishing baselines for surveying and movement monitoring
  • Checking and calibrating instruments.
  • Site engineering topics, including quality assurance, site drawings, concreting, reinforcement drawings, bending schedules, road works, Steel, and RC frames.
  • AutoCAD software and training
  • First aid at Work
  • Building information modelling

 

Learning the topics above is intended to provide extra skills to overcome a lack of prior work experience and make you attractive to employers.

      I recently completed the Engineering Surveying course at Finchley College, and it was a fantastic experience. The course was well-organized, very practical, and provided plenty of useful information.

      I want to give special thanks to Reza, our teacher. He was brilliant, knowledgeable, and always professional. He explained everything clearly, made even the complex parts easy to understand and gave us real-world examples to help us learn. He was also very approachable and happy to answer any questions we had.

      The college provided excellent equipment and hands-on training, which was very important for this type of course. The staff were also friendly and helpful whenever we needed support.

      I would highly recommend Finchley College to anyone looking to study engineering surveying. It’s a great place to learn and improve your skills.

      What a pleasant experience.

       

      Every part of this course is constructive and useful. Reza is highly knowledgeable, patient and most helpful. I would recommend Finchley College to anyone.

      It's a really great college

       

      It's a really great college. I'm doing there my ProQual NVQ Level 3 in Engineering Surveying.
      The teachers are very professional and try their best to make you understand the subject. If student struggle in some areas teacher is always trying to put an extra effort to help him to learn or understand it better.
      Apart from theory there are lots of practical exercises. You get full training and understanding of working with Leica Total station, dumpy, laser and digital levels, GNSS.
      Also it is easy to get to - just a few minutes walk from Finchley Central Station.

      Pleased with the experience

      I have recently been certified my ProQual Level 3 Diploma in Engineering Surveying at Finchley college. I am truly pleased with the experience and the help that has been provided by the team.

      They are one of very few that qualify you for this certificate. If you're serious about your engineering career, Finchley college is where you start your journey.

      Just a really great course

       

      I'm pleased with my experience at Finchley College. The tutors are excellent—knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about surveying. I was fortunate to have 1-2-1 training which meant I got the best possible training. The course was a mix of theory and practical, which was super helpful.

      Reza has a wealth of knowledge that has literally taken a lifetime to accumulate, and I am really grateful for the help and transfer of some of that knowledge.

      ProQual Level 3 Diploma in Engineering Surveying

       


      I would like to share my experience and recommendations. Recently, I archived my engineering course with Finchley College in 2024 and completed my NVQ L3 Diploma in Surveying and Engineering.
      Although I had been in engineering for the last ten years, I needed a formal qualification. I knew most of the things, but I still learned new techniques with the help of Reza and the college team. I am happy with the instructor and the team’s experience, knowledge, and friendliness. I highly recommend attending Finchley College for your training. I have taken other courses in the past, but Finchley College training is the best and will give you deep learning in every subject of engineering and surveying. After completing the course, you should be more confident to work on your own, and at the same time, completing the course, you will able to apply for a professional SCCS cold card, which no other training provider will give you this benefit.
      Good luck to you and the training you may choose to take.

      Best Wishes.

      Best College for set-out Engineers

       

      I came across Finchley College on their YouTube channel, where they've put free lecture videos. I decided to join the college and was met with friendly and knowledgeable staff. The program was flexible and adjusted for my learning needs. I was provided with online videos and ebooks, enough to cover all the aspects in order to become a set-out engineer. Arguably, I was offered more study material than the UNI I paid for way more. Having a professor so passionate about their work gave me the confidence to ask even the most trivial of questions to become a better engineer. All the students are welcome to drop by any time after graduation to ask questions that they may face in the field over their career as engineers, I can't remember any other school I've attended that welcomes past students like that. To me this is a big plus and thumbs up to Finchley College.
