Graduate training program-intensive GNSS, Setting out and site surveying course
Surveying is an exciting, rewarding, and secure profession. There is a great demand for competent engineers and surveyors. This course is your gateway to the world of engineering and surveying and prepares you to work as an engineer or surveyor.
Graduate training market
- The market is very good; employers seek competent graduates who can easily work using surveying equipment. Search the CV library for site engineers or setting out engineers. Pay rates range from £120 to £200 per day.
You could earn about £1000 per week within a year.
Graduates have always had a tough time. We know this because we went through the same process many years ago. We understand the difficulties of securing employment for graduates.
Employers pay high rates to agencies and rightly expect value for money. Although recruitment agencies advertise for graduates, they are very reluctant to employ one who graduated a few years ago and cannot use Total Stations and other surveying instruments. It is significantly worse for overseas graduates.
Finchley College's graduate training program offers a block of 8 weekdays or 8 Saturday afternoon sessions over two months.
You will also achieve two-unit certificates in setting out and using GNSS. Demonstrating your recent training and certificates to employers and agencies is essential.
Key learning topics:
- Total station programs
- Mathematics of surveying
- Stakeout and surveying
- Reference line, arc, and plane
- Setting out techniques
- Setting out piles, columns, walls, roads, drainage, and groundwork

At the end of this course, you should be able to work as a junior setting-out engineer.
