Appraisal Practices Board seeks new members
The Appraisal Foundation has begun its search for qualified candidates to fill four upcoming vacancies on its Appraisal Practices Board (APB).

The board’s nominating committee will consider the following qualifications in its search for applicants:
- A minimum of 10 years of appraisal experience;
- A working knowledge of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice(USPAP);
- Familiarity with valuation methodology and techniques;
- Experience in writing on valuation topics and/or curriculum development;
- Experience with public speaking and/or teaching on valuation topics; and
- Experience in serving on a publicly accountable board.
