Be a Voice Again - State Occupational Analysis
Posted: Fri Aug 26, 2011 4:20 pm
BPELSG has developed an online Occupational Analysis "survey" (I really hate using that term for a questionnaire, but they are measuring something, and that's what they call it, so...).
This is for all CA licensed surveyors to participate in. there are over 4000 active survey licenses, and if 10% were to participate, some really useful data could come out of it.
The purpose of this "survey" is to determine what aspects of practice PLSs spend their time on, and what practicing PLSs (you) perceive to be important for the newly licensed surveyor to be able to do and to know.
The results will determine the content mix of the CA state specific PLS exam for the next several years. So if you've ever thought that a particular area of practice has been regularly under-represented of over-represented on the exam, here's your chance to have input and affect the balance of exam content.
The whole thing takes about 45 minutes +/- barring interruptions. But if you are interrupted, you can save your progress at the end of each page so that when you come back, you start where you left off.
Thanks to the 20 or so PLSs who Beta-tested and offered comments for improvement over the last couple of weeks. The resulting "survey" covers most practice aspects pretty well. If you were a Beta-tester, please take the time to go through the final "survey" as these will be the results analyzed.

Thanks in advance for your participation.
