Spring 2013 Newsletter of the FCIAAO
The IAAO Certificate of Excellence in Assessment Administration is the highest professional honor a
jurisdiction can obtain. The Florida Chapter of the IAAO is proud to have nine (9) jurisdictions that
have qualified for the IAAO’s Certificate of Excellence in Assessment Administration. At the last IAAO
Annual Conference Florida jurisdictions represented nearly half of all of the jurisdictions that have
achieved this recognition. The Certificate of Excellence recognizes and requires a high level of ap-
praisal and assessment proficiency and teamwork throughout the entire office.
The Florida Chapter would like to encourage other Florida Property Appraiser’s offices to obtain a Cer-
tificate of Excellence and keep our State and our Chapter at the forefront of appraisal and assessment
practices. The Certificate of Excellence recognizes the hard work of the entire staff. Candidates for the
Certificate of Excellence will learn about their organization’s strengths and weaknesses and further
develop the strong office teamwork and group achievement that is required to complete the Certifi-
cate’s rigorous requirements.
In addition to the recognition as an industry leader that the jurisdiction achieves with the Certificate of
Excellence, other benefits include:
Enhancing the public trust
Promoting staff and individual professionalism
Focusing staff on strategic goals
Developing additional staff teamwork
Boosting staff morale
