Description

State Requirements

In many states, entry into the real property appraisal profession occurs with the trainee appraiser classification. This classification may be referred to as apprentice appraiser, provisional appraiser, registered appraiser, or a similar designation determined by state appraiser regulatory agencies. While the name may differ, the expectations of the role are the same. Trainee appraisers work under the direct control and supervision of a supervisory appraiser to gain an understanding of the national Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) while accumulating experience performing appraisals.

In this course, you'll learn about the qualifications and responsibilities of both the supervisory appraiser and trainee appraiser role including:

AQB minimum qualifications for various appraiser classifications and supervisory appraisers
Jurisdictional credentialing requirements for trainee and supervisory appraisers which may exceed the AQB minimums
Processes for establishing credentialed appraiser qualifications and the role entities involved in the process play
Expectations and responsibilities of the trainee and supervisory appraiser
USPAP basics
Responsibilities and requirements of trainee and supervisory appraisers in maintaining and signing experience logs
