Learn the key features of the 2008-2009 USPAP and re-familiarize yourself with its Rules and Standard Rules.

Effective January 1, 2003, licensed/certified real property appraisers  must successfully complete the one of the National USPAP Courses, or their equivalent, once every two years. This course may be taken to satisfy this requirement.

This course is intended to aid appraisers seeking to maintain their competency in the latest edition of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP).  Competent performance of an assignment by an appraiser in compliance with USPAP promotes and preserves public trust in professional appraisal practice.  An appraiser who properly uses the Uniform Standards enhances his or her recognition as a professional. 

This continuing education course presumes appraisers have been introduced to the Uniform Standards in other courses or through membership in professional appraisal organizations.  The 7-hour course focuses on edits made to create the most recent version of USPAP. Changes include elimination of the Supplemental Standards Rule; edits to the Conduct section of the Ethics Rule; edits to the Comment of SR 2-3 (certification); elimination of Statement 10; addition of three Advisory Opinions; and retirement of Advisory Opinion 5.

The National USPAP Courses are updated bi-annually in conjunction with the current edition of the USPAP.  Only AQB Certified Instructors are permitted to teach the National USPAP Courses.
