Course Reviews

See what students are saying

“Everything was insightful and was explained clearly. The course wasn’t boring(like most courses that are online) and being a trainee, I learned some new ideas for when I get my license and and out on my own. My supervisor is old school and is afraid of the changes, we use clip boards and old school tools, cameras and measuring stick. This course has a lot of valuable information to save time during the inspection.”

One of the best courses taken, mostly due to Bryan being an engaging speaker. Have had a couple where the presenter was most effective at putting me to sleep.

The course exceeded my expectations. I found it to be very informative and expanded many of the items in USPAP. I would recommend it to other appraisers.

Very good, well presented and the instructor was very knowledgeable of the subject

Better than McKissick. Great course with good material
