Important Items to Know / Understand Before Registering
· If you are seeking credit from a state outside of California, check with your state licensing board to make sure that it will grant approval for (1) an out-of-state virtual classroom offering, (2) accepts reciprocal credit if approved in the host state and/or (3) accepts offerings from an out-of-state provider prior to registering. This is a chapter-developed program; we are not submitting for credit from states outside of California. However, we are hearing that more and more states are now accepting reciprocal credit; Washington, Alaska, Hawaii and Idaho may be among them; there could be others. In addition, some states outside of California may have additional reporting requirements that the chapter is not able comply with. There is NO examination required for this virtual offering.
· Photo IDs. As part of the required attendance monitoring for virtual classroom offerings, all students need to provide the Chapter Office with a copy of their Photo ID/Driver's License upon registering. IDs need to be submitted even if you have attended a prior chapter-sponsored offering.

About the Conference
The very first Valley Seminar began in 1970. Our "modern" version of the Valley Seminar became known as the Spring Conference in 2000 and had taken place each spring at the Modesto Center Plaza since 2006 . . . until 2021. With the continuation of the COVID pandemic, for the second time, Spring Conference will be presented in an interactive virtual classroom format. With the convenient ZOOM format, attendees will have an even greater opportunity to hear from and connect with a variety of industry professionals including – regulators, practicing appraisers, attorneys, and brokers. It is this combination of quality and content which draws an increasing number of repeat and new attendees not only from the Central Valley but from the greater Bay Area and beyond!
