Appraiser Training & Certification
The Board of Equalization (BOE) is responsible for the certification of state and county assessors' personnel performing appraisals for property tax purposes. Statutes require the BOE to certify appraisers before they perform these duties. The certification includes an initial evaluation of the candidate's education and experience, the successful completion of a qualifying examination, and the requirement for continuing education.
