- The UK & South Africa are very different countries. The cost of living in the UK is double what it is in South Africa. In regards to square mileage, South Africa is 5 times larger than the UK. As a Quantity Surveying Channel, we wanted to see if there were differences relating to our profession also.

Great content, you will go far with this enthusiasm. More collaboration videos please 😊
It looks like people loved Nothando on this video with us, so we will definitely get some more exciting people to join us in the future (probably not as exciting as Nothando though 😉)
Nothando thanks for this reference
And thanks for watching our video 😊
Nothando 's video brought me here. I like this.
That's great! We hope you'll stick around and enjoy some more of our videos 😊
great video, helping me to understand the industry more thanks
You are very welcome Sham. Remember, we upload a new video every Wednesday !
Well we South African quantity surveyors dont stay in South Africa for longer than 2 or 3 years after graduation as the profession is well in demand in most commonwealth countries and is listed on skills shortage lists, the middle east in a popular destination for South African quantity surveyors as well as New Zealand and Australia
Hi,
Are you still based in SA or have you moved to work abroad?
So informative!
Stay tuned next week, where we will dive deeper into NEC contracts...
I love this.
That's great! What part suprised you the most?
I follow and love Nothando. She makes it so easy to understand QS and she is simply thee best at explaining things. She is the reason why i watch channels like these
We love Nothando too!!!
We're so happy that she's guided you to our channel and hope you'll stay with us. We can't promise that we will be as funny or as awesome as she is but we can promise that we will provide you with the most informative QS videos on CZcams :)
You may see more of Nothando on our channel soon as well 😉
This is a very interesting information, if I may ask. Is it possible for a South African Graduate to get an agency who’ll place him/her in the UK to become a Trainee QS or Assistant QS? Or a company that is willing to help an unemployed graduate.
It's very possible to be placed as an assistant or graduate QS in the UK from SA. The difficulty would come in finding your own accommodation and travel as a company is a less likely to pay relocation costs for a junior member of staff compared to say a Senior QS.
I am in from today!
May I ask in from where today?
Hi
Hi!
@@Metroun where are you from
Hi my friend and I am also Quantity Surveyor and I am a Indian and could you give me your whatsup number and I will support you
@@b.rnaidu4397 We are based in the UK. But we are able to provide services globally..
Okay I also join with you
Why is CICES more relevant, and how would I be affected if I chose a uni that isn’t accredited by CICES . The unis I’ve chosen are mostly accredited by CIOB AND RICS and CABE , is that good enough?
CICES is only really relevant if you're planning on working within civil engineering as a Quantity Surveyor, for example in Highways.
RICS is still by far the most prestigious chartership to be associated with so if your course is accredited by RICS you'll be fine.
Please remember that the accreditation only really matters if you plan on gaining chartership through these associations. Many QS's go through their entire working lives without having any sort of chartership and have long successful careers.
Is there any videos you may find useful as an undergraduate that we can produce?
@@Metroun I haven’t started studying yet , I will in September.
Good luck! We should have an even larger library of information for your studies then 👍😊
Drop us a message if you would like any further information
I’m currently studying civil engineering in the uk and thinking of becoming a QS what do I do if I want to be chartered but I didn’t know at the time when applying for uni my course is accredited by the ICE but not necessarily by the RICs would a ICE chartershop still be okay ?
R1,500,00, wow UK😳? Until you try to buy a comfortable family home in the UK😭.
The average house price in the UK stands at £315,150 or R6,660,579.
So yeah buying a comfortable a property is not always easy.
We will be talking a little more about property in future videos so we would love if you'd subscribe so you find out more!
