– Dr. R. Roosevelt Thomas, Jr.

Diversity Committee Mission Statement:
To create an inclusive environment that encourages and supports all members, perspectives and talents and embraces all people interested in pursuing a professional appraisal career, enabling all to contribute at their highest potential.
Unique Opportunities for Minorities and Women
The Minorities and Women Directory is a search tool for local, state, and federal agencies and financial institutions that would like to, or are required to, assign a portion of their work to qualifying minorities, women and persons with disabilities. Members of the Appraisal Institute can add themselves to this directory for increased visibility.
The AIET Minorities and Women AI Designation Scholarship is designed to provide financial assistance to help associate members in advanced designation states achieve their SRA or MAI Designation. To learn more about the scholarship requirements, or to apply, click here.
