Mentoring the next generation of land surveyors.

Hi – I’m Carl Bert, Professional Land Surveyor

When I embarked on the survey profession back in 1965 then started Carl Bert & Associates, Inc. (CBA) in 1973, I had no idea what an exciting, fun, enjoyable, fulfilling journey I was about to take and all wonderful people I would meet. It’s been a hoot!!!!!! Special thanks to everyone who made that possible.
