SR/WA Designation

SR/WA – Senior Member, International Right of Way Association – is the most prestigious professional designation granted by IRWA to members who have achieved professional status through experience, education and examination.

The SR/WA designation requires training and examination in several major right of way disciplines. The SR/WA designation says, “I have more than five years of right of way experience, plus I have had formal training in a wide variety of right of way areas.”

The SR/WA professional may be a specialist in one area such as acquisition, relocation or law, but also must be familiar with the other disciplines associated with the right-of-way profession. The SR/WA designation is the only designation reflecting evidence of professional attainment in the right of way field.

Welcome to the IRWA Designation Program!

Earning the IRWA Designation is both a journey and a destination. For experienced and skilled right of way professionals like yourself, your designation validates your skills and demonstrates your proficiency in your chosen discipline. The IRWA R/W-URAC Certification Program is a structured process designed to provide you with the knowledge and tools that will help you advance in your profession.
