One of the big values that the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers brings to the membership is their accreditation program. Here are the new Accredited Farm Managers. One of them is Jeffrey Hignight. I talked with Jeffrey about what this accomplishment means to him personally and professionally. Jeffery says it shows that he’s continually trying to educate himself since learning never stops.

In addition to new accredited farm managers we also now have new Accredited Rural Appraisers. Here are the new ones and thanks to ASFMRA Executive Vice President Brian Stockman for the photos.

Many ASFMRA members carry the distinction of being accredited, the highest recognition given by the Society. These designation are achieved only after years of professional service, many rigorous hours of education and comprehensive testing conducted by the Society.

Those who have earned their professional designation proudly display a high level of competence and ethical fitness for the appraisal, consulting, and management professions. To earn accreditation, rigorous education and continuing education requirements must be met and extensive practical experience in the profession must be demonstrated.
