3. Students will develop a professional portfolio, as required for the interview process.
4. Students will develop a professional networking profile.
5. Upon completion of the professional development program, students will utilize their job search abilities and learn how to negotiate for employment as an Appraiser Trainee, if not already enrolled in an apprentice program.
6. Students who are accepted into the Associate Program with Metro-West Appraisal will have an opportunity to practice the skills they have learned under direct supervision in an actual work environment.
Metro-West Appraisal Company, LLC, the largest independent residential appraisal firm in the nation, matches students with mentors that have years of experience, a proven track record of completing quality appraisals and a consistent pipeline of appraisal assignments. The paid Associate Program is designed to provide Allied students with the first step in securing long-term employment by providing hands-on experience working alongside tenured appraisers. Greg Stephens, the Program Chair and Chief Appraiser, oversees the program, bringing 40 years of appraisal industry experience and industry qualifications, including SRA Designated Certified General Appraiser and winner of the Valuation Visionary Award.
“We are excited to partner with Metro-West to provide our students with the very best hands-on experience and teaching them firsthand how to put their skills to work,” said Eagan. “This is setting them up for success from the very beginning, with respected mentors by their side.”
With Allied’s Real Estate Appraiser Trainee Professional Development program, appraisal students receive the basis of career exploration and preparation, followed by an opportunity to earn Trainee experience with a Supervisor Appraiser with Metro-West Appraisal where they learn the acceptable methods of analyzing, researching, inspecting, reporting and monitoring all aspects of the appraisal process.
