quality training for experienced and aspiring appraisers
To become a real estate appraiser in California, you must complete a minimum of 150
hours of appraisal-related education covering the specific topics required by the
Appraiser Qualifications Board (AQB). At least 15 hours on the Uniform Standards
of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). These classes must be taken from licensed
instructors.
The premiere instructor in the Sacramento Valley area is Barry R. Cleverdon.
Barry Cleverdon has taught appraisal courses since 1989 and is certified by the State
of California and State of Nevada as a Course Provider. He is certified by the Appraisal
Foundation to teach USPAP 7- and 15-hour courses. As he is also a Senior Instructor
for National Association of Independent Fee Appraisers, these courses are also available.
Appraiser Training offers a wide variety of one- and two-day classes.
We provide continuing education courses for appraiser re-licensing, including the
7-hour USPAP renewal course and the 15-hour USPAP course. The continuing education
courses for license renewal are practical application courses. Classes are approved
by the state of California, and the USPAP 7-hour and 15-hour courses are also approved
by the state of Nevada.
We also offer a License Test Preparation course to help applicants pass the AQB-required
examinations. Students who complete this class pass the exams at a significantly
higher rate than those who don’t.
