What is NOT a responsibility of the Appraisal Standards Board (ASB)?

The role of the Appraisal Standards Board (ASB) is primarily focused on establishing and improving the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). This involves setting standards for appraisal services and promulgating these standards to ensure that appraisers adhere to best practices within the industry. While the ASB is dedicated to enhancing the quality and reliability of appraisals, the responsibility for issuing appraiser credentials lies with separate entities, such as state licensing boards or professional appraisal organizations, which manage the licensing and certification process of appraisers. Thus, the correct response reflects the distinction between the functions of the ASB and those responsible for the credentialing of appraisers.
