AAA STRUCTURE

The Appraisers Association of America, Inc. was founded in 1949 and incorporated in 1950 in New York State as a non-profit 501c6 business association; in 1986, the Appraisal Institute of America was founded as a non-profit 501c3 educational foundation. The Appraisers Association of America, known as AAA to members, friends and colleagues, is based in New York City, with an office on Park Avenue South in Manhattan. The Board of Directors consists of eighteen Certified Members from around the country and four Past Presidents. The membership is further represented by nineteen Regional Representatives from nine regions including the Northeast, Mid Atlantic, Midwest, South, Southwest, West, New York State, New York City and an international representative. Monthly meetings of the Board of Directors are held at which standing and adhoc committees report on the business of the association. Standing committees oversee projects such as admissions and ethics; adhoc committees oversee projects such as lectures, seminars, national conferences and long range planning. Programs are offered at nominal fees throughout the year and are open to members, friends and colleagues. Membership applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and members are admitted throughout the year. A staff of four including Executive Director, Associate Director, Membership Associate and Administrative Assistant manages the day to day operations of the organization and provides services to members. The organization's fiscal year runs from July 1 through June 30, and income to support a wide range of membership programs and services is generated from membership dues, membership application fees, program and course fees, and publication and supply sales as well as from charitable contributions from corporate and other sponsors.
