Kevin Cunningham – Former AssocRICS, now MRICS Surveyor

e.surv’s Trainee Surveyor scheme has been fantastic. It enabled me to kickstart my career as an AssocRICS surveyor faster than I anticipated. I was daunted at times but, via mentoring, classroom sessions, clever tech and lots of support from my Manager, Trainers and colleagues, I’ve achieved my goal, a career to be proud of.
