The Appraisal Institute's Commitment To Diversity

Diversity brings each of us strength through a broad range of new ideas, experiences and business practices. The Appraisal Institute is committed to promoting diversity within our association as well as in the real estate profession as a whole. Through its Diversity Committee, the Appraisal Institute offers scholarships, a minority and women directory, training and advocacy to create a body of appraisers that reflects our diverse environment. To learn more about the Diversity Committee, view the committee’s strategic plan or diversity brochure.


The Appraisal Institute strives to eradicate discrimination and harassment wherever it may be found. We advocate equal opportunity and freedom from discrimination or harassment in the appraisal profession and conduct our activities in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local laws. If a member believes in good faith that he or she was discriminated against or harassed by an Appraisal Institute employee or by any member executing official duties on behalf of the Appraisal Institute, the member should report the incident immediately to the Chief Executive Officer or General Counsel for a thorough investigation of the complaint. The Appraisal Institute will not retaliate against a member who files a good faith report of discrimination or harassment.
