The 15-Hour National USPAP Course focuses on the requirements for ethical behavior and competent performance by appraisers that are set forth in the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP).
The primary objective of this course is to have participants become familiar with the USPAP document. The course material emphasizes the role of the appraiser and the impartiality associated with this role. Special responsibilities of the appraiser with regard to impartiality are explored in detail. All required manuals from The Appraisal Foundation are included in your course.
This course is offered via live online (synchronous meeting) delivery. Once enrolled, you can select upcoming classes to attend. Classes are offered weekly in four 3.5-hour sessions (Part A, Part B, Part C, and Part D). They must be taken in order but you can select the schedule options that work best for you. No need to register in advance, just show up! Upcoming classes are:
