To provide the best possible service to Indiana taxpayers, the Department conducts a mandatory continuing education program to ensure assessing officials across the state receive and remain up to date on the latest in advances in assessing.

Level I Assessor-Appraisers are required to earn 30 hours of continuing education credits during a four-year cycle following initial certification and every four years thereafter. Level II Assessor-Appraisers are required to earn 45 hours of continuing education credits during a four-year cycle following initial certification and every four years thereafter. Once, a four-year cycle is completed and certification requirements are met, a new cycle begins January 1st.

A current listing of approved continuing education courses can be found by clicking the Training link in the adjacent Quick Links box. A listing of online continuing education courses is also located in the adjacent Quick Links box.

The Department of Local Government Finance tracks the continuing education credit hours for all individuals who hold a Level I and/or Level II Assessor-Appraiser Certification. The Department generates year-end transcripts every Spring to confirm completed continuing education.

If continuing educational requirements are not met, as either a Level I and/or a Level II Assessor-Appraiser, disciplinary proceedings to 50 IAC 15-3-5 may commence. Assessor-Appraiser certifications will be revoked and assessors will be required to retest to regain certification.

Assessors should maintain a current address on file with the Department to ensure continuing education updates are received in a timely manner. Assessors should advise the Department of any change in address (home and business), telephone numbers, and any name changes. Changes can be reported to the Department by calling (317) 233-1168.
