Swanston passes the baton ..

Article Abstract:

The RICS has established much stronger links with educational establishments during the year in which Roy Swanston has been president. He has emphasised the importance of employers deciding which graduate courses best meet their requirements, and has taken steps to ensure that chartered surveying degrees are now good general degrees, allowing surveying graduates to obtain employment in a number of different areas. He is particularly keen for people to plan their careers thoroughly, and for the RICS to play an active role in this process.
