For example, some states do NOT allow any virtual education. When registering for any Appraisal Institute course, all participants will be required to check state approvals based on delivery format. For more information, see our state approvals page.

Participation Requirements: AI National Synchronous students are required to have a computer, webcam, and microphone capability to participate and receive continuing or qualifying education credit where approved. It is the student’s responsibility to have the required equipment to participate and receive credit. Visit the System Requirements for Attendees and Share Webcam pages for help.

• All students are required to always keep their webcam on with their entire face fully visible while class is in session. 
• Attendance will be monitored throughout the day through webcams and polling.

Connection Information:
Several minutes after you receive your Appraisal Institute receipt email, you will receive a second email from GoToTraining which will include instructions on connecting to the live session and a link to a small download of the GoToTraining software. The software runs on almost all operating systems and popular browsers. Connection email reminders are sent at specific intervals: 1 week, 1 day, and 1 hour prior to the live session start time. If you do not receive the connection information, please check your junk, spam, or quarantine folders. For questions, please email customerservice@appraisalinstitute.org or call (888) 756-4624

Note: Work devices with strong VPNs or firewalls have trouble connecting to GTT systems. It is recommended to use your personal device or to reach out to your organization’s IT department for assistance prior to the first session. 

In this class, GoToTraining’s built-in recording software will be used to record live class discussions. As a student in this class, your participation in live class discussions will be recorded. The Appraisal Institute will use the recordings to ensure that all students are following guidelines and to track attendance based on state needs. These recordings will be made available only to students enrolled in the class, to assist those who cannot attend the live session (e.g. emergencies such as extreme weather situations, family emergencies, etc.) or to serve as a resource for training new instructors. All recordings will become available at the discretion of the instructor or the Appraisal Institute’s Education department. Students who prefer to participate via audio only will be allowed to disable their video camera so only audio will be captured. Please discuss this option with your instructor.

The use of all video recordings will be in keeping with the Appraisal Institute Privacy Statement shown below:

Assuring privacy among faculty and students engaged in online and face-to-face instructional activities helps promote open and robust conversations and mitigates concerns that comments made within the context of the class will be shared beyond the classroom. As such, recordings of instructional activities occurring in online or face-to-face classes may be used solely for internal class purposes by the faculty member and students registered for the course, and only during the period in which the course is offered. Students will be informed of such recordings by a statement in the syllabus for the course in which they will be recorded. Instructors who wish to make subsequent use of recordings that include student activity may do so only with informed written consent of the students involved or if all student activity is removed from the recording. Recordings including student activity that have been initiated by the instructor may be retained by the instructor only for individual use.
