What are we looking for?
NLC is looking to hire a Land Surveyor Educator to join our NLC Test Prep team to create top-tier land surveyor exam study materials.
As a member of the NLC Prep team, you will:
Grow with a Learner’s Mindset and a Teacher’s Heart: At NLC, we champion continuous learning and innovative study techniques. Team members are encouraged to identify challenges and create initiatives that drive student, company, and personal growth. By facing these challenges head-on, you won’t just be following a set playbook; you will be actively building the future of NLC Test Prep.
Collaborate with Peers and Leaders Alike: NLC values collaboration and support, where team members, management, and industry leaders are committed to helping each other succeed. We work closely with industry professionals to ensure that we create the most up-to-date comprehensive study materials.
Teach Core Knowledge: NLC Prep stays ahead of exams and teaches the core knowledge that every Surveyor should know before putting “PLS” behind their name.
What will you do?
As NLC Prep's Land Surveyor Educator, your primary responsibility is to ensure our existing FS, PS, and State-Specific exam preparation materials remain accurate, current, and effective. Rather than developing new courses, you will review and update existing videos, workbooks, practice exams, statute binders, and other educational resources as exam specifications, laws, and professional standards change.
In addition, you will serve as one of NLC Prep's educational experts by hosting bi-monthly live Question & Answer sessions for students through Discord and YouTube. These sessions provide guidance on exam preparation, clarify difficult concepts, answer student questions, and help maintain student engagement throughout their study process.
Your responsibility is to ensure that NLC Prep's educational content remains complete, accurate, up to date, and valuable to students preparing for professional surveying examinations.
