1. The board shall adopt rules establishing uniform appraisal standards and appraiser certification requirements and other rules necessary to administer and enforce this chapter and its responsibilities under chapter 272C, subject to the superintendent’s supervision and authority under section 543D.23.

This paragraph does not require that an appraiser invoke a jurisdictional exception to the uniform standards of professional appraisal practice in order to comply with federal law and appraisal standards adopted by federal authorities as they apply to federally related transactions, unless federal law requires that the exception be invoked.
b. Develop standards for the scope of practice for certified real estate appraisers.
c. Required compliance with the uniform standards of professional appraisal practice in all appraisal assignments.
3. Appraiser certification requirements shall require a demonstration that the applicant has a working knowledge of current appraisal theories, practices, and techniques which will provide a high degree of service and protection to members of the public dealt with in a professional relationship under authority of the certification. The board shall establish the examination specifications for each category of certified real estate appraiser, provide or procure appropriate examinations, establish procedures for grading examinations, receive and approve or disapprove applications for certification, and issue certificates.
