The Royal Geographical Society has approved less than 900 Chartered Geographer applications worldwide since 2002, making Iain one of a rare breed! Iain has been with CADS for 19 years, joining in 2001, was appointed Senior Surveyor in 2003, then Principal Surveyor in 2011 and received his Associate RICS qualification in 2017.
To be eligible for the certification, Iain needed a minimum of 10 years’ experience within a geographical related occupation, to have undertaken a range of geographical Continuing Professional Development (CPD) activities and hold Fellowship status within the society. He also had to create a professional career portfolio demonstrating how the Society’s Framework of Competencies are met within daily work activities and beyond. Iain also had to provide a three-year CPD log, examples of project work undertaken and two professional referees to corroborate the evidence. Iain has truly put in the work to receive this well-respected certification.
