Bonus points, however, are awarded when you attend one of our seven recommended programs (CAP, CUV, Report Writing, Litigation Report Writing, Industry Standards Update webinar, the Around the Valuation World webcast subscription, or Mastering the Six Pillars of Business Appraisal Review)
  • Bonus points can be used to offset the $300 Recertification Fee Determination.
