            Senate Bill 1340 amends the Occupations Code to provide that a surveyor-in-training certificate is valid for eight years, rather than the earlier of six years or the date the certificate holder becomes a registered professional land surveyor, as prescribed under previous law. The bill also provides that the Board of Professional Land Surveying must require a certificate holder to complete certain continuing professional education courses as a condition for retaining the certificate and to maintain records of such courses, which are subject to audit by the board as an additional condition for retaining the certificate.
