This certification program provides a comprehensive body of knowledge to the surveyor regarding their relationship with the National Flood Insurance Program. Surveyors play a crucial role in the entire NFIP system. To adequately perform the duties to fulfill NFIP requirements, a surveyor must expand his or her knowledge on this specialized aspect of the profession.
Over an intense three-day period of instruction, the surveyor is exposed to the many flood issues, including the National Flood Insurance Program, Code of Federal Regulations Title 44, Flood Insurance Rate Maps, Letters of Map Change (LOMA, LOMR-F, LOMR), no rise certifications, and the Elevation Certificate.
Following this training, there is a four-hour exam administered to assess the surveyor’s floodplain knowledge.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many CEUs will I receive?
This course will provide 12 Elective CEUs.

Do I have to be a licensed surveyor in Indiana to attend this course?
The course is restricted to registered and licensed land surveyors in at least one state. The course is designed for licensed land surveyors to enhance their knowledge of floodplain management issues.

Once a candidate obtains the Certified Floodplain Surveyor Certificate, is there an expiration, and/or are there continuing education requirements to maintain the Certification?
Once you become a CFS, you are required to take a four-hour refresher course every two years. Currently, there is a course available on the NSPS website. There is no testing, just the refresher, most especially required as FEMA periodically changes regulations.
