The Appraisal Foundation (TAF) is seeking qualified candidates to fill three at-large trustee positions for its board. The individuals elected will serve three-year terms beginning on Jan. 1, 2023., TAF announced in a release.
“Advancing public trust in the appraisal profession is the core mission of The Appraisal Foundation, and that work is dependent on the leadership of the Board of Trustees,” TAF President David Bunton said in the release. “This is an opportunity for stakeholders with a deep interest in the appraisal profession and leadership and non-profit management experience to shape the future of the Foundation and the profession amidst a rapidly changing world.”
The board provides financial support and oversight to the foundation’s two independent boards, the Appraiser Qualifications Board and the Appraisal Standards Board. The board meets twice a year, and while trustees are reimbursed for travel expenses, they are not compensated for their time.
The board includes individuals from all appraisal disciplines, users of appraisal services, former appraiser regulators, academics, business leaders and community advocates. The Appraisal Foundation believes diversity enhances the quality of its boards. When evaluating candidates, the Trustee Nominating Committee will seek to choose qualified candidates who contribute to creating a diverse board.
Completed applications for board vacancies must be received by March 1, 2022. Please contact Board and Councils Program Manager Arika Cole at 202.624.3072 or via email at [email protected] with any questions about the application process.
