Milton Keynes Surveying School
HOffer New Route Into Residential Surveying
ave you ever bought a domestic property? If so, you will know how important it is to commission a residential surveyor to assess
its condition before you commit to buying. Without a survey you run the risk of finding out your dream home is really a nightmare in disguise. Wood worm, building movement, Japanese knotweed in the garden – these are all things to look out for when buying a property and residential surveyors are specially trained to identify defects such as these, helping homebuyers to protect their investments and even negotiate on price. The SAVA School of Surveying, based in Milton Keynes, offers a unique opportunity to join the residential surveying profession and become an Associate member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) in just 15 – 24 months. The diploma is a competitive and more accessible alternative to the traditional degree route. Delivered part-time, the SAVA Diploma in Residential Surveying and Valuation provides the only
vocational route into the profession, giving career changers the opportunity to study for an industry-recognised qualification without giving up their existing work and life commitments.
The school has received fantastic feedback from its learners and is fast becoming the training provider of choice for career changers looking to enter the world of property surveying.
SAVA learner, Alix Heritage, says, “The great thing for me about managing family life and
a career in surveying is that I can book all my appointments during school hours and then write my reports at home once I have collected the children from school.”
“I would really recommend this course to others...the opportunities afterwards are very appealing and the flexibility really does mean that you can have it all – a focus on the family and a rewarding and varied career.”
With part-time learning, competitive course fees and finance packages available, the Diploma in Residential Surveying and Valuation opens doors for those seeking a professional and well-respected career. Courses are currently available for booking in Milton Keynes and Surrey. These courses will commence in February 2017.
If you are looking for a flexible and rewarding career in property, find out more about the SAVA diploma by visiting the SAVA School of Surveying website or contact a SAVA course adviser on 01908 442158. www.surveyorqualifications.co.uk info@sava.org.uk
