About us

CSI offers practical, hands-on training programs to students and experienced practitioners who want to expand their civil and surveying knowledge, with an emphasis on technical computing.

Operating since 2008, CSI was formerly known as the Institute of Surveying and Civil Design Training (ISCDT). As the organisation has evolved, its name and identity have been updated to better reflect its expanded scope and ongoing commitment to the industry.
