24.207.2101    CONTINUING EDUCATION – COMPLIANCE AND AUDITING

(1) The board shall direct by motion a percentage of licensees to audit for compliance with continuing education requirements. Audited licensees shall provide copies of completion certificates to the board office as directed by the audit request.

(2) Failure to respond to the audit or to comply with continuing education requirements may result in the administrative suspension of the license and reporting to the appraiser national registry until the licensee cures the continuing education deficiency. Repeated failures by a licensee to respond to or comply with a continuing education audit may result in the filing of a complaint and referral for disciplinary action.

(3) If more than 10 percent of appraisers audited fail to meet continuing education requirements, the board shall conduct the next annual audit using a higher percentage of audited appraisers as set by board motion.

(4) Licensees shall retain completion certificates for a period of five years.
