What the Connecticut data shows for Land Surveyors

Becoming a licensed land surveyor in Connecticut means clearing a defined set of hurdles: board-approved training, a passing score on a state-approved exam. Connecticut regulators place this credential inside their licensing framework, which classifies the training track as "Experience/Apprenticeship".

Upfront cost is $150 on a 2-year cycle. Connecticut doesn't require continuing education for this license, so upkeep costs stay confined to the renewal fee itself.

There's no published reciprocity list here - Connecticut reviews out-of-state credentials individually.
