Thank you for your interest in the Arizona Professional Land Surveyors Association.

Not surprisingly, all types of surveyors (government, private practice, etc.) are among our membership as you will see by the enclosed membership listing. They’ve discovered that our Association is a great place to help in their success. When members attend our programs and share their success stories, they learn how to become the top surveyors in the industry, any new ideas, new products, or new ways to approach an old challenge.

You can also get useful information from our quarterly publication The Arizona Surveyor, which I have also enclosed for your perusal.

Membership dues are based upon several different criteria, which are listed, on the membership application. To become a member, all you need to do is complete the membership application and submit it along with your first year’s dues payment. That way you can begin to take advantage of the member-only benefits immediately.

We look forward to welcoming you as our newest member soon!
