Nakon osnovne kole u rodnom gradu i gimnazije u Varadinu, gdje je maturirao 1957., upisuje se na Geodetski odsjek Arhitektonsko-graðevinsko-geodetskog fakulteta u Zagrebu na kojem je diplomirao 1962. godine. U to doba provodi se reorganizacija geodetske slube u tadanjoj SR Hrvatskoj. Osnivaju se nove geodetske tvrtke Zavodi za izmjeru zemljita u Osijeku, Rijeci, Splitu i Zagrebu, te Zavod za fotogrametriju u Zagrebu. Tek nekoliko mjeseci nakon osnivanja, gospodin Kriaj nalazi prvo zaposlenje u Zavodu za fotogrametriju uz koji æe vezati svoj cijeli radni i profesionalni vijek. Dolaskom u Zavod za fotogrametriju prva radna iskustva stièe na terenskim geodetskim radovima diljem Hrvatske.
