Abstract
The Teaching Essentials for Responsible Land Administration (TERLA), developed between 2015 and 2018 under the patronage of the Global Land Tools Network (GLTN), marked a pivotal step in advancing the understanding, unity, and practice of land administration globally. This paper acknowledges the collaborative effort by distinguished scholars and practitioners in the creation of TERLA. It addressed the challenge of teaching the daunting and complex domain of land governance at a country level. This publication acts as a touchstone. It looks back on that foundation work, unpacking lessons, but also draws on the insights of those valuators and educators deeply engaged with its application to case forward. Representing the joint efforts of the International Federation of Surveyors (FIG) Commissions 2 and 7, this paper recognizes the need to adapt TERLA to the evolving demands of professional education in land administration. We encourage all educations and practitioners in the land administration domain to read and reflect on the contents within, considering how they impact on their own teaching and learning contributions in land administration, and the ensuring of a sustainable pipeline of responsible talent enters our important domain.
