Appraiser Qualifications Board Course Approval Program (CAP)
The Course Approval Program (CAP) was established by the Appraiser Qualifications Board (AQB) at the request of and as a service to state appraiser regulatory agencies and real property appraisal education providers. The intent of this voluntary program is to provide a minimum level of acceptance for real property appraisal education courses meeting the Real Property Appraiser Qualification Criteria established by the AQB.
The program is designed to be a convenience for education providers and state regulators by providing easy access to education that has met minimum AQB requirements.
The AQB encourages state appraiser regulatory agencies and providers of real estate appraisal education to participate in and support this program.
