EducationAlign Advanced Certificates with the HEQF Establish standing of DMR Certificate of Competency
on the NQF – 2011 PLATO Council decision: COM mine survey certificates also need evaluation in order to register MS(Pr.Cert.) for mine surveyors not meeting the PLATO MS requirement (i.e. No ND)
Communicate education model to members Place career path with job opportunities on website
Participate in discussions on the future of the COM

Registration of Mine SurveyorsUpdate PLATO guidance notes for registration criteria
Approved @ AGM – FC to correct & send to PLATO Develop an IMSSA graphic model to explain
registration categories. Membership statistics noted at PLATO AGM PMS = 132, MS (Pr. Cert) = 4, MS = 42, MST = 28EAC to evaluate mine survey qualifications for
purpose of MS (Pr. Cert.) to see if these equate to Diploma
Mine surveyors who took advantage of the grandfather clause do not have this problem

IMSSA alliance: PLATO versus ECSAInform PLATO of IMSSA concerns and
proposals on several matters e.g. Mine Planning registration, DMR recognition, etc.
Develop IMSSA position paper on registration of designations at SAQA as these become available (Mr Colin Bennett is the IMSSA representative at SAQA)

ECSA Mine Planning RegistrationRequest blanket exemption from any mine
planning restrictions on mine surveyors from ECSA, recognising that design can only be done by a Mining Engineer, whereas planning, optimising and implementation require a body of competent persons and specialists
Maintain link with SAIMM by attending monthly SAIMM Council meetings

Geomatics Professions BillIMSSA letter to Chief Surveyor-General - Our
concerns are fundamental and as such we objected to the Bill
The Bill denies mine surveyors from our current competence in favour of professional land surveyors.
There is a disproportionate representation in favour of professional land surveyors on Council.
Chief SG Report tabled at 2011 PLATO AGMCSG received all inputs - now with DLA Policy divisionCannot say when the next draft bill will be ready for
public release
