Modeled after and closely tied to the International Federation of Surveyors (FIG) Young Surveyors Network, the NSPS Young Surveyors Network is an organization dedicated to creating a national network of Young Surveyors within NSPS and its affiliate organizations.With the first meeting held in 2014, the organization was developed to build networks and grow relationships for surveyors under the age of 35 or who recently graduated. As those new to the profession have a greater opportunity to increase personal and professional networks, they will motivate others to join the community and promote the surveying.The definition of a Young Surveyor is someone under the age of 35 or who earned their degree within the past ten years. All surveyors, however, are welcome to join, but the focus will remain on supporting those new to the industry.
