  1. 14 hours of Continuing Education: Valuation Expo has the hottest speakers bringing you the latest information. We have regulators, industry leaders and national lenders. Check out COURSE INFO on our website for more information. The best part is we have it approved for 14 hours of onsite continuing education in most states.
  1. Biggest Trade Show EVER: Our trade show floor boasts more exhibitors and sponsors than we’ve ever had. We will have appraisal software companies, AMCs, E&O providers, education services, technology companies and a national lender.
  1. It’s about WHO you know: The one thing that makes the Valuation Expo successful every year is our focus on networking opportunities. We have so many ways for you to meet new people and create new business. Dress to impress, bring lots of business cards, and be prepared to meet with new clients.
  1. Re-Boot Camp sponsored by Wells Fargo: Wells Fargo will play a big role in Valuation Expo this year. They are offering six sessions, approximately 2 hours each, taught by Wells Fargo’s talented staff appraisers. These sessions are FREE to any appraiser who has signed up for a full conference pass.Wells Fargo is calling these pre conference sessions “Re-Boot Camp”. This training is not just for new appraisers, but for seasoned ones as well. They are trying to close the communication gap between lenders and appraisers. As a lender, Wells Fargo feels they will benefit as much as appraisers from this open dialogue. Wells Fargo has identified areas where they believe appraisers will benefit from additional training and positive interaction with their team. Wells Fargo is dedicated to forging strong relationships with appraisers as they grow their direct engagement channel.CLICK HERE to see the different classes being offered.
  1. It’s not all work and no play: Valuation Expo has much to offer during your downtime too. Take part in the Appraisal Bee and you could win prizes from participating vendors. Last year attendees took home big screen TV’s, iPads, Kindles, gift cards, new technology, and much more.
