- Having been established in 1975, the Commission of Cartographic Studies of Macao, the predecessor of Cartography and Cadastre Bureau, intended to execute all the work of cartography and topography, as well as the organization and conservation of the cadastre of Macao territories. However, due to the shortage of capable staff in this area, the Macao Topography and Cadastre School (ETCM) was founded in accordance with the Provincial Decree No.29/75 of 13th of September, primarily focusing on the combination theoretical and practical teaching methods, along with professional practices to cultivate qualified trainees serving as topographers. The first General Course of Topography and Cadastre, launched in 1975 and Portuguese as a medium of instruction, was composed of two semesters in one-year course, and the course tutoring in Chinese was launched simultaneously since 1976. In 1977, the first Advanced Course of Topography and Cadastre, with a duration of two semesters in one-year lecture, was launched with the purpose of improving students' technical knowledge in relevant aspects. Until 1988, the General Course of Topography and Cadastre was revised as 4 semesters in two-year, a spare-time study with 16 hours per week. The current regulation of Macao Topography and Cadastre School is approved by Decree-Law No. 44/95/M of 28 of August amended by Administrative Regulation No. 2/2010, in which stipulates Topography and Cadastre Course consisting of a general course and an advanced course with a duration of one year lecture for each.
