    Course Description
    This course synthesizes the three approaches to value, examines their applications, and helps you apply basic and advanced valuation techniques. Case studies teach you how to address common but complex appraisal issues, including a leased fee not at market rent, a proposed property, a property in a market not at equilibrium, and a subdivision. The course emphasizes the need to test the reasonableness of all the conclusions in an appraisal.

    Note. This is primarily a synthesis course, not a review course. Like all advanced education courses sponsored by the Appraisal Institute, the course naturally reviews many concepts taught in previous courses. However, it includes some new material and does not include a complete overview of the other courses. Therefore, Advanced Concepts & Case Studies should not be considered an adequate review for the comprehensive exam. To prepare for the comprehensive exam, participants must review all four advanced education courses, as well as basic concepts from qualifying education for certified general real property appraisers.

    • Mandatory diagnostic test. Before enrolling in this or any other MAI designation course, you must take an Excel diagnostic to demonstrate your mastery of solving appraisal problems using spreadsheets. The diagnostic is intentionally designed to be challenging and ensure participants have adequate Excel skills before taking MAI designation courses.  The diagnostic test is free and can be taken at any time on your personal computer. To register for the test, please click here. For more information, check out the Diagnostic FAQ.

    • A pre-class, on demand (self-paced) online session component. The on demand component is available beginning 28 days before the live online (synchronous) course begins.  The online component requires the completion of a pre-class assignment at least 2 days before the live online (synchronous) course begins.

    • 30 hours of live online (synchronous) education. Each live online session runs for 4.0 hours each day with at least 2 breaks during that time. The course runs for 8 half-days (Monday – Thursday) over 2 weeks.

    • A 3-hour proctored exam at an offline testing center. You will have 90 days from the time that you complete the course to take the proctored exam. Testing center locations in your area can be found by clicking on this link: www.pearsonvue.com/ai.

    AI National Synchronous Participation Requirements:
    • All 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 keep their webcam on at all times while class is in session. Attendance will be monitored throughout the day through webcams and polling. A photo ID must be presented during roll call at the beginning of class on the first day.

    • The instructor must be able to interact with all students. Instructors and administrators will direct questions to each student in the morning and afternoon to which students must respond. Students must be in a location that allows for their full attention and interaction at all times.
