Hey guys just have a quick question. I'm currently enrolled in SAIT for the land administration certificate program but the thing that I have noticed is that almost all the prople in the class already have jobs in the industry. Currently I'm working in the construction industry and taking these classes at night but I wanted to think ahead a little because a desk job for this winter wouldn't hurt.

What is the best way to get the foot in the door without having finished the program. I know of the CAPL website but every there requires experience. I figure that spring time is probably the best time to try to get in. Anyone with any suggestions or tips.

I'm currently not scheduled to finish the program until early next year if all goes well. If I can I want to fast track it and take the final 4 classes in fall.

Anyways thanks for the time and any thoughts.
