The Consulting Surveyors National Professional Standards Scheme has been endorsed by the Professional Standards Councils and commenced on 1st July 2020.
The Scheme has been specifically designed to promote professional standards, enhance consumer protection and to enable private practice members to limit their civil liability to selected amounts provided they meet the Scheme's requirements.
Technically an element of law, Professional Standards Schemes are a way of capturing the obligations and commitments that Associations make on behalf of Professions to the Professional Standards Councils to do the right thing.
With a strong focus on Risk Management and Professional Ethics, the Scheme seeks to deliver better consumer protection for the community and reduce risk to those Surveyors and individuals within Survey Practices that participate.
