We have roughly half a dozen general meetings each year and also provide an array of ongoing educational opportunities. Keep abreast by reviewing what’s on the calendar and register at the event registration page.

Create Opportunities

We invite students who are interested in learning about the profession to attend our events. If you are a student in college, you may become a member of the ASA free of charge and attend events for no charge, capacity permitting (please register). In addition, we offer Ally Memberships for State Certified Real Estate Appraisers and other appraisers who would like to become more involved.

Give Back

Each year we support a variety of charities in our community. In recent years, we have supported Cradles to Crayons in Philadelphia. The National ASA also has limited scholarships to support those interested in advancing in the profession through the ASA Educational Foundation.
