Reddit reply

For the r/Surveying thread asking about your 10-week program. We couldn't read the thread from here, so this answers the question in its title and the top comment Google shows (“if this dude is buying lambos doing freelance drafting work, why is he bothering selling you…”). Send us the thread text and we'll tailor it to what people actually wrote.

Jasen here. It's my program, so weigh what I say with that in mind. I'm not here to argue with anyone's opinion of me. I'll just answer what was asked. What it is: a 10-week course in drafting surveys in Civil 3D. Boundary, topo, as-builts and site plans, built from real jobs. Two live sessions a week where I go through questions and homework, plus a Discord. The people in it are field crew moving into the office, drafters coming over from manufacturing and architecture, and a fair number of engineering grads. What it isn't: a path to licensure, or a replacement for a PLS who has time to mentor you. Everything a drafter produces still goes to the licensed surveyor who signs and seals it. [Jasen: one sentence on your own status, e.g. "I'm a drafter and a trainer, not a licensed surveyor."] "Why sell a course if drafting pays?" Fair question. I learned this from a surveyor in Colorado who taught me over the phone when I was broke and recovering from a brain injury. Later I ran a small drafting team and had to teach every hire surveying from scratch. I liked that part more than the production work, and I kept meeting firms with nobody free to train a new drafter. So I built the training. On the ads: [Jasen: the top comment mentions Lamborghinis. Say plainly what's true. If the marketing is louder than the course, own it in one line, for example: "The ads are louder than I am. The course is ten weeks of drafting."] Results: some students have moved into office drafting jobs or picked up freelance clients, and some of them have said so publicly. I don't promise anyone a job. What you get depends on the hours you put in and your local market. If you took it and it wasn't worth it for you, say so here. I'd rather hear it than not. Happy to answer anything specific.

Before you post

  • Read the subreddit's rules. If self-promotion needs approval, message the moderators first and tell them you want to answer a thread about you.
  • Post from an account that is clearly you. A new account with your name is fine. Say it's new.
  • No links. People can find you.
  • Reddit locks old threads, often at six months. This one is about five months old, so post soon.

After you post

  • Answer follow-up questions within a day, briefly, and stop when it turns into an argument.
  • Don't ask students to comment. A wave of praise reads as fake even when it's real.
  • Don't edit the reply after people respond. Add a line starting “Edit:” if you need to correct something.
  • If the thread is already locked, don't start a new one about yourself.

Talking points, about 10 minutes
0:00 Why I'm making this People search my name before they reach out. A Reddit thread asked whether my program is worth it. Those are fair questions and I'd rather answer them myself. No pitch in this video. 0:40 Who I am, in one minute CAD since about ten. Boating accident senior year, brain injury, food bank. A surveyor in Colorado taught me by phone. Two surveyors, then a team of engineering students I trained. On screen: the photo from four months after the accident. 2:00 What the program is 10 weeks. Civil 3D. Real boundary, topo, as-built and site plan projects. Live sessions twice a week. Resume, portfolio and interview prep with me. On screen: a real lesson and a finished student drawing. 3:30 "If drafting pays, why teach?" I was training drafters before I taught a course. I liked teaching more than production. Firms had nobody free to train. 5:00 What I can't promise No promised jobs. Results depend on the hours you put in and your local market. 5:45 The marketing [Jasen: own whatever is true about the ads and the money talk in older videos.] 6:30 For the surveyors watching Drafters work under a licensed surveyor who signs and seals. This is not a route to a licence. Field crews are skilled people. Mauricio came from one. 7:30 What students have said On screen: the Trustpilot page, scrolled so all 12 reviews show. Two short interview clips, for example Mauricio and Charlie. 8:45 See it for free first Free Land Surveying 101 course.

I teach land survey drafting in AutoCAD Civil 3D. I've used AutoCAD since I was about ten. In my senior year of college a boating accident left me with a brain injury, and freelance drafting was how I got by. A surveyor in Colorado taught me land surveying over the phone. I went on to draft for licensed surveyors and trained a team of engineering students to draft with me. That training turned into Land Survey Drafts. Our 10-week program, Survey to Success, takes field crew, drafters and career changers through real boundary surveys, topographic surveys, as-builts and site plans. Firms use it to train their own people. More about me: jasenhunt.com The program: land-survey-drafts.com

Subject: Guest idea: training field crew to draft Hi [host's first name], I'm Jasen Hunt. I teach land survey drafting in AutoCAD Civil 3D and run a 10-week program called Survey to Success. I listened to [episode title] and [one specific thing you took from it]. I think your listeners would get something from a conversation about the drafting side of the surveyor shortage. A few angles I can speak to from experience: 1. Moving field crew into the office. One of my students went from a field crew to drafting full time for his company in three weeks. What made that possible, and where it usually goes wrong. 2. Why firms struggle to train drafters, and what a new drafter needs to learn first. 3. How I got into this. A surveyor taught me over the phone while I was recovering from a brain injury. I'm not looking to pitch my program on your show. Bio and photo are at jasenhunt.com/contact. Thanks for considering it, Jasen Hunt info@land-survey-drafts.com
