Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
At the time an application is submitted to the division of real
				estate, an applicant seeking state-registration as a real estate appraiser
				assistant shall demonstrate that no more than five years prior to the
				division's receipt of the application, the applicant has successfully completed
				the following courses approved by the superintendent:
(A) Thirty classroom hours of basic appraisal
			 principles;
(B) Thirty classroom
			 hours of basic appraisal procedures;
(C) One course devoted exclusively to
			 federal, state, and municipal fair housing law;
(D) A course that, at a minimum, complies
			 with the specifications for course content established by the appraiser
			 qualifications board, which is specifically oriented to the requirements and
			 responsibilities of supervisory appraisers and registrants. Course content must
			 meet the requirements found in paragraph (K) of rule
			 1301:11-7-02 of the
			 Administrative Code; and
(E)
			 Fifteen classroom hours on national uniform standards of professional appraisal
			 practice or its equivalent. Equivalency shall be determined by the appraiser
			 qualifications board approval program or by an alternate method established by
			 the appraiser qualifications board. At least one of the course instructors must
			 be an instructor certified by the appraiser qualifications board in national
			 uniform standards of professional appraisal practice and who is also a state
			 certified appraiser in good standing.
(F) An applicant for registration shall
			 satisfy the requirements in this rule through distance education as defined in
			 paragraph (A) of rule
			 1301:11-7-03 of the
			 Administrative Code or through classroom hours of instruction. Distance
			 education must satisfy the requirements of paragraph 
								(A) of rule
			 
								1301:11-7-03 of the Administrative Code.
			  Hours of instruction in a classroom setting must be approved
			 by the appraisal qualifications board of the appraisal foundation, or obtained
			 from a college or university, community or junior college, a nationally or
			 state recognized appraisal or real estate organization, a proprietary school, a
			 state or federal commission or agency, a provider approved by the
			 superintendent or the real estate appraiser board, or the appraisal foundation
			 or its boards.
(G) For this rule, a
			 "classroom hour" is defined as fifty minutes of instruction out of each sixty
			 minute segment attended by the student. "Classroom hour" applies to instruction
			 held in a classroom or in a distance education setting. With the exception of
			 the requirements found in paragraphs (C) and (D) of this rule, classroom hours
			 may be obtained only where the minimum length of the course offering is fifteen
			 hours, and the individual shall successfully complete a closed-book final
			 examination pertinent to that course offering. The examination must be
			 proctored in person or remotely by an official approved by the college or
			 university, or by the sponsoring organization. Bio-metric proctoring as defined
			 by the appraiser qualifications board for the appraisal foundation is an
			 acceptable form of proctoring. An examination may be written on paper or
			 administered electronically on a computer workstation or other device. Oral
			 examinations are not acceptable. Experience shall not be substituted for
			 education.
(H) Upon notice from the
			 division of real estate that an application is incomplete or incorrect as
			 filed, the applicant shall, within thirty days of the date of the last such
			 notice, submit to the division the additional requested information or the
			 corrected application. Failure to timely submit the additional requested
			 information or the corrected application shall constitute just cause for the
			 superintendent to void the application.
